NEX-HOOD
Stretch-Hood Films

NEX-HOOD Solution: NEX-HOOD HQ – 5-layer construction with mLLDPE and enhanced mechanical parameters (shrink force, hold force, tear resistance). The film holds the load in a single, compact unit, eliminating layer shifting on the pallet during transport and forklift maneuvers.

Value for You: Fewer transport damages, lower claim costs, stable pallet even on long routes and multiple handling operations.

NEX-HOOD Solution: Stretch-hood uses significantly less film per pallet vs. traditional stretch wrap (wrapping machine), while simultaneously offering higher packaging process speed (pallet secured in several seconds). Elimination of manual wrapping also means less labor and improved workplace safety.

Value for You: Reduction in material and labor costs, higher packaging line efficiency, shorter cycle time per pallet.

NEX-HOOD Solution: NEX-HOOD PCR with post-consumer recycled content and ISCC PLUS variants (mass balance). Mono-PE construction compliant with Design for Recycling. Implementation requires no modification to customer’s packaging line – same machine, same process recipe, lower carbon footprint.

Value for You: Meeting ESG and PPWR requirements without CAPEX on new packaging line, simpler sustainability communication in B2B supply chain.

NEX-HOOD Solution: NEX-HOOD NHD – printing directly on stretch-hood film up to 6 colors, in technology adapted to shrink process (from partner printing facility Bonardi, 1800 mm width). Printing can be combined with PCR dosing.

Value for You: Pallet as a full-value brand carrier in the logistics chain – brand visibility in warehouse, during distribution, and at end customer, without the need for labels or banderoles.

NEX-HOOD Solution: Full compatibility with the most popular stretch-hood lines on the market: Lachenmeier, Beumer, MSK, Bocedi. Recipes tailored to specific customer line parameters, with downgauging capability (film thickness reduction while maintaining shrink force and pallet stability) thanks to 5-layer construction with mLLDPE.

Value for You: Implementation without packaging line modifications, lower unit film cost per pallet, ready pathway for annual plastic consumption reduction.
