InteGuard films are designed to alleviate common performance issues typically seen with existing hooder films on the market.

The InteGuard product line features tried and tested industry-leading solutions for both shrink and stretch hooder machines, with both high stretch and high containment blends available based on the application. InteGuard films are compatible with all major machine manufacturers’ hooder machines.

InteGuard hooder films are the premier choice for protecting and securing palletized products such as:

InteGuard hooder films feature superior stretch properties that conform to a variety of pallet shapes, as well as excellent containment force for load stability. These robust films feature high puncture and tear resistance to withstand wear and tear from the elements and the rigors of transportation. InteGuard shrink hooder and stretch hooder films are available in a full range of widths and sizes, accommodating pallets from 3’x4’ to 4’x6’. Customization options are available upon request, including ultraviolet inhibitors (UVI) and other additives.
