The FE-M is a manual stretch film designed for palletizing, bundling, and protecting goods without the need for a stretch wrapper. It meets the needs of professionals seeking a flexible, quick-to-implement solution suitable for order picking, occasional shipments, or low- to medium-volume packaging operations.
Available in various thicknesses and colors, it allows you to adjust the level of resistance, discretion, and consumption according to the site's constraints. The 17 µm version is suitable for standard applications and cost optimization, while the 23 µm version is recommended for more demanding, heavier loads or those with sharp angles.

Professional manual stretch film for simple and efficient palletizing
FE-M is a manual stretch film developed for quickly securing pallets and bundling goods without specialized equipment. Easy to use, it allows for direct hand application with excellent tension control, making it particularly suitable for order picking stations, one-off shipments, flexible logistics environments, or facilities without automatic stretch wrapping machines.
Its formulation provides a good balance between elasticity, support, and mechanical resistance. It conforms well to the contours of the load, keeps boxes or packages in place, and improves overall cohesion during storage, handling, and transport.
A flexible solution to adapt to realities on the ground
Unlike machine-applied film, manual stretch film gives the operator direct control over winding and tension. This flexibility allows for easier adaptation to the nature of the load, its shape, stability, or weight, which is particularly useful when pallets are heterogeneous, irregular, or prepared in small batches.
The FE-M is therefore suitable for both standard loads and more delicate or complex products. It allows for targeted reinforcement in specific areas of the pallet, particularly at the base, corners, or top, to improve the overall security of the packaging.
A range designed for different protection needs
The FE-M is available in three colors to meet different logistical needs. The transparent film facilitates visual identification of goods and the reading of labels or barcodes. The opaque black and white films, on the other hand, provide greater confidentiality, reduce the visibility of the contents, and can also help protect certain sensitive products from light or prying eyes.
The 17 µm / 23 µm distinction also allows the product to be adjusted to the actual load. The 17 µm option is particularly suitable for homogeneous pallets and controlled consumption. The 23 µm option is more appropriate when the products have sharp edges, a greater mass, or are more fragile.
A film designed for comfortable manual application
The FE-M is designed for direct manual application, offering good handling and operator-controllable tension. This feature is essential in environments where flexibility is more important than automation.
This allows:
- immediate implementation without machinery
- an adaptation to the type of load in real time
- improved control of the winding
- a simple solution for mobile or temporary workstations
Good elasticity to effectively support loads
Manual stretch film must be able to stretch without breaking, while maintaining a good clamping effect around the pallet. FE-M was designed to offer this combination of flexibility and cohesion.
This allows:
- to properly wrap the boxes and parcels
- to improve the cohesion of the palette
- to limit loosening during transport
- to secure the goods with a regular tension
Two thicknesses depending on the level of stress
The availability of 17 µm and 23 µm thicknesses allows the film to be adapted to the realities of palletized loads. The choice of thickness directly influences mechanical resistance, consumption, and the level of protection.
This allows:
- to optimize costs on current loads with the 17 µm
- to enhance adhesion to more demanding pallets with the 23 µm
- to better withstand sharp angles
- to match the right product to the right use
Protection against everyday aggressions
In addition to stabilizing the pallet, the FE-M helps to protect products against dust, ambient humidity and minor shocks or friction related to handling.
This allows:
- to preserve the condition of the goods
- to improve the durability of packaging during storage
- to limit certain types of dirt
- to increase the reliability of shipments
Several colors to adapt the visibility
The FE-M is available in transparent, black and opaque white to meet visibility or confidentiality needs depending on the sector of activity and logistical constraints.
This allows:
- to see the contents immediately with the transparency
- to conceal the goods with opaque versions
- to limit the risks of opportunistic theft
- to adapt the presentation of the pallets to the needs of the site
Great flexibility of use
The main advantage of manual stretch film is its ability to quickly adapt to field needs. It requires no special equipment and can be used immediately at all types of workstations.
It allows:
- rapid implementation
- occasional or regular use
- an adaptation to short series
- great flexibility for operators
Precise load maintenance
Manual application allows the user to adjust the tension and number of turns according to the weight, format, and stability of the pallet. This control significantly improves the final quality of the wrapping.
It allows:
- to reinforce the sensitive areas of the palette
- to better manage heterogeneous loads
- to avoid movement during transport
- to obtain a tightening that is suitable for each situation
An economical solution for non-automated needs
The FE-M is particularly interesting for companies that do not need a stretch wrapper or that wish to maintain a flexible and economical palletizing solution.
It allows:
- to avoid investing in a machine
- to reduce costs on manual workstations
- to respond to specific or variable needs
- to ensure good protection at a controlled cost
Effective logistical protection
In addition to maintaining the product's shape, the film helps protect it against common damage encountered in logistics flows.
It allows:
- to protect from dust and moisture
- to reduce minor impacts and friction
- to keep the packages together on the pallet
- to make shipping operations more reliable
A solution suitable for many sectors
The FE-M integrates easily into a wide variety of environments, from small workshops to logistics warehouses, including distribution or order preparation activities.
It allows:
- use in logistics
- industrial use
- use in commerce and e-commerce
- use in a workshop or warehouse
Productivity and performance
- quick and machine-free application
- good load retention
- Effective pallet protection
- flexible and economical solution
- suitable for varying loads
Manual palletization of goods
The FE-M is primarily used for manually wrapping pallets of cardboard boxes, parcels, or various products before storage or shipping. It stabilizes the entire load and secures it without requiring complex installation.
It allows:
- to keep the goods on pallets
- to group several packages into a single set
- to improve transport safety
- to improve the reliability of shipping preparations
Order preparation and e-commerce
In order preparation environments, manual stretch film is particularly useful for quickly wrapping pallets or grouped parcels, even when volumes vary greatly.
It allows:
- to film the pallets before departure
- to group the packages from the same shipment
- to protect pending orders
- to adapt the filming to the variety of formats
Use in logistics and warehousing
The FE-M is a simple and effective solution for warehouses, logistics platforms and storage areas that require a handy and immediately available film.
It allows:
- to secure the charges in stock
- to prepare the pallets for handling
- to strengthen the handling of parcels
- to optimize shipments without automation
Product grouping and protection
Beyond full pallets, manual stretch film can also be used to hold multiple products together, protect items, or reinforce smaller logistics units.
It allows:
- to group articles together
- to protect sensitive products
- to avoid the scattering of packages
- to improve the cohesion of the groups
Typical or demanding loads depending on the thickness
The FE-M 17 µm and FE-M 23 µm allow us to meet different levels of constraint depending on the type of products to be filmed.
It allows:
- to optimize consumption on standard loads with the 17 µm
- to better protect heavy loads with the 23 µm
- to better withstand sharp angles
- to precisely adjust the expected level of support
