Polyester Bale Banding/Strapping
Polyester strapping (also known as banding) is a type of strap used to fasten & hold bales of recyclable materials together once the baling process is complete.
This material is the ideal choice for those seeking a strong but lighter alternative to steel strapping.
Our hot-melt strapping is weather-proof and has a high tensile strength of 350kg. This means it can handle large, heavy bales without breaking apart.

Consumables | FAQ
What consumables do I need for a baler or compactor?
For balers and compactors, typical consumables include baling wire, strapping/tape, and sometimes liners or banding materials depending on machine type and waste stream. These ensure secure bales or compressed waste, ready for transport or recycling.
Why is baling wire or strapping important?
Baling wire or strapping binds compressed cardboard or paper into stable, transport-ready bales. Without proper wire or straps, bales can fall apart — making handling, storage and transport unsafe or inefficient. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
