Before the run
The resin lot is recorded against the order before film is made.
Quality and compliance
The next reel should run like the last.
Checks from the resin lot to the finished reel. Documents for a buyer go out from sales.
On the run
During the run
Gauge and width are checked so the film stays inside the agreed band.
Before it leaves
Reels are checked for winding, core size, and clean edges.
Film tests
Finished film is tested against the agreed spec. Figures for an order are available from sales.
| Test | Reference method | What it tells you |
|---|---|---|
| Gauge | Micrometer check | Thickness stays in the agreed band. |
| Cling | ASTM D5458 | Layers hold the load, and the unwind stays usable. |
| Puncture | ASTM D5748 | A corner or edge does not open the film. |
| Tensile and elongation | ASTM D882 | Strength while the film is stretched on the load. |
Traceability
A reel should be easy to identify and easy to reorder.
- Batch The production batch is tied to the resin lot and the order.
- Label The reel label carries the details needed to match the same spec again.
- Reorder Sales can pull that spec from the batch record.
Compliance
ARGUS POWER stretch film is polyethylene, made for industrial load containment.
- Declaration packs are sent by sales on request, including REACH information and answers on restricted substances.
- Tender documents for a named grade are sent with that grade, from sales@arguspower.al.
- Stretch film is polyethylene packaging. Where a local stream accepts it, it can be recycled as PE.
