Choose from High-Performance Strapping Options for Every Load Type

At Ink Station, we stock three core materials to cover just about every pallet strapping job: PET (polyester), polypropylene and composite. Browse our range and choose from lightweight, flexible options for small cartons and unitising, and step up to high-tensile systems for heavier pallets or longer transits. Each option is warehouse-ready and compatible with standard tools and buckles, making it easy to integrate into existing packaging strapping workflows.

PET & Polyester Strapping

For demanding applications, PET has high tensile strength with low creep, holding stacks tight through temperature changes and while in transit for long periods. It offers excellent impact absorption, reduced stretch, and strong resistance to weathering, making polyester strapping a reliable stand-in for steel in many operations. If you're shipping bricks, tiles, timber, or whitegoods, a correctly tensioned PET strap will keep its shape and maintain closure integrity from dock to door.

Polypropylene (PP) Strapping

Polypropylene strapping is flexible, cost-effective, and easy to use for lighter cartons, mailers, and quick bundling. It feeds smoothly through manual tools and tabletop machines, can be secured with buckles or heat, and resists splitting during everyday handling. These features make it perfect for use in e-commerce fulfilment centres, retail back rooms and general packing benches.

Composite Strapping

Composite strapping features a fibre-reinforced core that combines toughness and shock resistance. Composite strapping shines in applications where loads may shift in transit, whether when loading mixed pallets, irregular shapes or rougher transport legs. Non-abrasive to product edges and friendly to handlers, it’s a smart alternative when you need robust retention without the hazards of steel.

FAQs for Packaging Strapping

What is packaging strapping used for?

Packaging strapping is used to hold pallets, cartons, and bundled goods together so they travel securely and store neatly. It maintains compression around the load, prevents shifting, and reduces damage, saving time and cost on rework and returns.

What’s the difference between PET, composite, and polypropylene strapping?

PET (polyester) has high tensile strength and low stretch for heavier loads and long journeys. Composite adds fibre reinforcement to provide superior impact resistance when loads may move in transit. Meanwhile, polypropylene suits are ideal for lighter tasks where speed, cost, and flexibility are most important.

How do I choose the right type of strapping for my business?

We recommend matching material to load weight and journey risk, then picking an application method. Manual systems use tensioners and buckles; semi-auto and automatic tools speed throughput and deliver consistent seals. If you’re scaling up, consider dispensers, edge protectors, and powered sealers to boost line efficiency.

Does strapping come in different widths or lengths?

Yes, it does. Common widths range from 12–19 mm with various thicknesses and core sizes; coil lengths vary by material and application method. Always confirm that your tensioner, sealer, and buckles match the strap width and profile for reliable, repeatable performance.
