What is meant by the term unit load securing)?

Securing a unit load starts with selecting the right load carrier and proper stacking.

Securing methods include:

  • Strapping: Metal/plastic bands secure the load to the carrier
  • Shrink wrapping: Heat-shrunk plastic wrap provides a tight, protective fit
  • Stretch wrapping: Pre-stretched film is wound around the unit (e.g., spiral wrapping, banding)
