Polyester Strapping is superior to polypropylene and because of its high break strength, is an excellent alternative to steel strapping. This product is unaffected by weather, safer than steel and easier to recycle. Polyester strap is resistant to elongation and has the ability to withstand a great amount of shock during shipping and is fast becoming the standard for shipping and unitizing loads, either by hand, power tools or large unitizing machines.

Cord strapping is made of super strength polyester suitable for light to heavy duty strapping applications, used for tying, buckle joints or tensioning packaging.

Cord strapping is available in non-woven and woven configuration. Features include safe handling, none rusting, abrasion resistance, good elastic properties and keeps loads tight.
