We have produced a perforated stretch hood: a tube 480 mm wide with a 180 mm gusset (1680 mm circumference) and venting holes that ventilate the space under the hood and limit moisture build-up. To our knowledge, it is unique in Europe. Below you can see it in footage from our production hall, and we explain when a hood this small makes sense.<\/p>\n\n  <div class=\"kx-summary\">\n    <div class=\"kx-label\">In brief<\/div>\n    <ul>\n      <li>NEX-HOOD tube 480 mm wide with a 180 mm gusset, which gives a 1680 mm circumference (2 \u00d7 480 + 4 \u00d7 180): a width that the standard stretch hood range (typically 1300-2200 mm) does not cover at all.<\/li>\n      <li>We make the venting holes while the tube is produced.

Once the arms release it, the film recovers towards its original size and holds the load on five sides: on top, on all four sides and under the base. A full cycle usually takes 15-25 seconds. We describe the mechanism in detail in our guide <a href=\"https:\/\/kablonex.pl\/en\/news\/how-stretch-hood-film-works-a-technical-guide-for-production-and-purchasing-managers\/\">How stretch hood film works<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n  <p>Because the technology was born on pallet lines, the market designs tubes for pallets. In our NEX-HOOD specification, standard widths are 1300-2200 mm, and most catalogues in Europe look the same. A small load is then left without options: either spiral wrapping or an oversized hood that does not hold.<\/p>\n\n  <div class=\"kx-quote\">A hood only holds the load when it is smaller than the load. That is why a small load needs a small tube, not a large one cut down.<\/div>\n\n  <h2><span class=\"kx-num\">02<\/span> 480 mm stretch hood tube with a 180 mm gusset: what the footage shows<\/h2>\n\n  <p>The tube is 480 mm wide with a 180 mm gusset. The gusset is the folded side of the tube that the applicator opens out during application. Thanks to the gusset, the flat tube on the reel is narrower, and once opened the hood wraps the load without creasing at the corners. The full circumference includes the gussets: 2 \u00d7 480 + 4 \u00d7 180 = 1680 mm. In the footage you can see both gussets as fold lines on the wound reel.<\/p>\n\n  <figure class=\"kx-video\">\n    <video controls muted playsinline preload=\"metadata\" aria-label=\"480 mm stretch hood tube with a 180 mm gusset on the rollers and on the reel\" src=\"https:\/\/kablonex.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/kablonex-stretch-hood-rekaw-480-falda-180.mp4\"><\/video>\n  <\/figure>\n  <p><em>480\/180 mm tube on the line: the film runs over the rollers and winds onto the reel. The gusset lines are visible.<\/em><\/p>\n\n  <p>A narrow tube with a deep gusset is a harder job for extrusion than a wide one. Any size deviation along the reel turns into uneven stretching of the hood by the applicator arms, and with a small width the same deviation in millimetres is a larger percentage of the size. Stable dimensions across the whole reel are a precondition here, not an extra.<\/p>\n\n  <div class=\"kx-card\">\n    <div class=\"kx-ghost\">1<\/div>\n    <div class=\"kx-role\">Size<\/div>\n    <h3>480 mm width, 180 mm gusset<\/h3>\n    <p>1680 mm circumference including the gussets.

The customer comes with a project, requirements and target savings, and we select the solution.<\/p>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <h2><span class=\"kx-num\">03<\/span> Perforated stretch hood: what the venting holes are for<\/h2>\n\n  <p>In this application the holes are mainly about ventilation. Under a solid hood, moisture has no way out, so during storage it builds up under the film and condenses on its inner side. Perforation ventilates the space under the hood and limits moisture build-up and condensation. A second effect shows during application: air under the stretched hood has a way out, so it does not form pockets and the holding force is spread evenly.<\/p>\n\n  <figure class=\"kx-video\">\n    <video controls muted playsinline preload=\"metadata\" aria-label=\"Perforation in stretch hood film: venting holes close up\" src=\"https:\/\/kablonex.pl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/11\/kablonex-stretch-hood-otwory-odpowietrzajace.mp4\"><\/video>\n  <\/figure>\n  <p><em>Venting holes close up: small dots at regular spacing on the flat tube, before it is wound onto the reel.<\/em><\/p>\n\n  <p>Perforation in stretch hood film is rare, because every hole is a potential starting point for a tear when the hood is stretched. The spacing and size of the holes therefore have to be matched together with the film formulation, so that the hood is ventilated and at the same time withstands stretching in the applicator and the whole journey.<\/p>\n\n  <div class=\"kx-callout\">\n    <div class=\"kx-label\">When perforation makes sense<\/div>\n    <p>Wherever moisture during storage is a problem. In construction this mainly means roof tiles and bricks, where the hood can also carry a print. The same goes for products in cardboard packaging, so that the boxes do not get damp in the warehouse, and for products that release heat or moisture after packing. Where the load has to be sealed tight, we stay with solid film.<\/p>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <div class=\"kx-compare\">\n    <div>\n      <div class=\"kx-lb\">&#10005; Oversized hood without venting<\/div>\n      <p>A tube picked \u201cfrom the catalogue\u201d for a small load has nothing to recover onto, and trapped air keeps the film away from the load. The load shifts in transit, and moisture collects under the solid film.<\/p>\n    <\/div>\n    <div>\n      <div class=\"kx-lb\">&#10003; 480\/180 mm tube with holes<\/div>\n      <p>Size matched to the load, gusset opened out by the applicator, holes ventilating the space under the film. The hood grips on five sides and moisture does not collect under the film.<\/p>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <h2><span class=\"kx-num\">04<\/span> How to order a stretch hood for a non-standard load<\/h2>\n\n  <p>We do not start from a catalogue, we start from the load and the line. We need the dimensions and weight of the load, information about the applicator (we work with Lachenmeier, Beumer, MSK and Bocedi lines), transport and storage conditions, and whether the product releases heat or moisture. On that basis we select the width, gusset, thickness, film structure and perforation.<\/p>\n\n  <p>This particular format with holes was developed for packing refrigerators, a niche of smaller loads for which a pallet hood is too big. We also make somewhat larger formats where the saving comes from a better size match: for example, a tube 30% narrower than the one the customer used before. Lower film consumption can therefore come both from downgauging and from a change of format. The example below shows how to calculate it.<\/p>\n\n  <table class=\"kx-spec\">\n    <caption>NEX-HOOD: the range within which we design the tube<\/caption>\n    <tbody>\n      <tr><th scope=\"row\">Width \/ circumference<\/th><td>From 480 mm wide with a 180 mm gusset (1680 mm circumference); standard widths 1300-2200 mm<\/td><\/tr>\n      <tr><th scope=\"row\">Thickness<\/th><td>45-150 \u00b5m, matched to load weight and route<\/td><\/tr>\n      <tr><th scope=\"row\">Structure<\/th><td>3 or 5 layers (five-layer lines), with mLLDPE for holding force and tear resistance<\/td><\/tr>\n      <tr><th scope=\"row\">Perforation<\/th><td>Venting holes on request, spacing matched to the application and storage conditions<\/td><\/tr>\n      <tr><th scope=\"row\">Additives<\/th><td>UV stabiliser, slip, antiblock, antistatic, colour masterbatch<\/td><\/tr>\n      <tr><th scope=\"row\">Lead times<\/th><td>Reply to an enquiry within 24 h, quotation within 72 h, sample from 14 days<\/td><\/tr>\n    <\/tbody>\n  <\/table>\n\n  <p>You will find the full specification and case studies on the <a href=\"https:\/\/kablonex.pl\/en\/products\/nex-hood\/\">NEX-HOOD<\/a> page.

Hood weight is circumference \u00d7 length \u00d7 thickness \u00d7 PE film density (approx. 0.92 g\/cm\u00b3). For the 480\/180 mm tube the circumference is 1680 mm, which means 1.68 m\u00b2 of film for every metre of hood length.<\/p>\n\n  <p>Below is an example based on assumed dimensions that shows the mechanism. These are not a specific customer&#8217;s figures: all variants use the same hood length of 2500 mm and the same 300 mm gusset.<\/p>\n\n  <table class=\"kx-spec\">\n    <caption>Worked example: film weight per hood with a length of 2500 mm<\/caption>\n    <tbody>\n      <tr><th scope=\"row\">Previous tube: 1300 mm, 300 mm gusset, 100 \u00b5m<\/th><td>Circumference 3800 mm; 0.874 kg of film per hood<\/td><\/tr>\n      <tr><th scope=\"row\">Tube 30% narrower: 910 mm, 300 mm gusset, 100 \u00b5m<\/th><td>Circumference 3020 mm; 0.695 kg per hood, 20.5% less film<\/td><\/tr>\n      <tr><th scope=\"row\">Narrower and thinner: 910 mm, 300 mm gusset, 80 \u00b5m<\/th><td>Circumference 3020 mm; 0.556 kg per hood, 36.4% less film<\/td><\/tr>\n      <tr><th scope=\"row\">At 100,000 hoods a year<\/th><td>87.4 t, 69.5 t and 55.6 t of film, which is 17.9 t or 31.8 t less<\/td><\/tr>\n    <\/tbody>\n  <\/table>\n\n  <p>Two things follow from this example. A tube 30% narrower gives about 20% less film, not 30%, because the gussets stay the same and what counts is the full circumference. That is why we compare circumferences, not widths alone. Savings from the format and from downgauging add up: in the third variant they reach more than a third of the film.<\/p>\n\n  <div class=\"kx-callout\">\n    <div class=\"kx-label\">We always verify thickness on the line<\/div>\n    <p>A thinner film has to hold the load in transit and withstand stretching in the applicator. That is why we confirm the thickness with a trial on the customer&#8217;s line and use the real dimensions of the load and the hood in the calculation.<\/p>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <h2><span class=\"kx-num\">06<\/span> Frequently asked questions<\/h2>\n\n  <h3>What is the smallest size of stretch hood film?<\/h3>\n  <p>The typical stretch hood range starts at around 1300 mm width, because tubes are designed for pallets. At Kablonex we have produced a tube 480 mm wide with a 180 mm gusset, which gives a 1680 mm circumference. We match the size to the specific load and the customer&#8217;s line.<\/p>\n\n  <h3>How do you calculate film consumption per stretch hood?<\/h3>\n  <p>We multiply the full tube circumference including the gussets (2 \u00d7 width + 4 \u00d7 gusset) by the hood length, the film thickness and the PE density, approx. 0.92 g\/cm\u00b3. In the example in this article, a tube 30% narrower with the same gusset gives about 20% less film per hood, and after downgauging from 100 to 80 \u00b5m about 36% less.<\/p>\n\n  <h3>What is perforation in stretch hood film for?<\/h3>\n  <p>The holes ventilate the space under the hood: they limit moisture build-up and condensation under the film during storage, which matters for example for roof tiles, bricks and products in cardboard boxes. During application they also let out trapped air, so the film grips the load on five sides, without air pockets.<\/p>\n\n  <h3>Do venting holes weaken the hood?<\/h3>\n  <p>Every hole is a potential starting point for a tear during stretching.
