Easy Handling

Being ~80% lighter than steel strap and having no sharp edges, Tenax strapping is easier to handle than steel strap

Performance and Protection

Non-abrasive - no scratching or surface damage, protects vulnerable materials. Manufactured for superior retained tension

Highly Sustainable

Manufactured using post-consumer polyester material and can be recycled after use

Operating
Efficiency

Controlled surface properties minimize tensioning effort to extend tool and machine life

Tenax High Performance Polyester Strapping

Tenax polyester plastic strapping provides maximum load stability for loads that shrink and settle during transit. PET is a a highly effective alternative to steel strap in many industrial and commercial applications.

Tenax is Stronger than other types of plastic strap. It has great elongation and recovery features. This help the strap stay tight and absorb impacts without breaking.

This strapping material yields higher break strengths and maintains a higher level of retained strap tension than polypropylene strapping. People commonly use it for palletized loads, such as PET bottles, to prevent product shifting during handling and transit. It works well and reliably in power strapping machines and manual tools. Available in general, high-strength, embossed, and high-strength embossed types.

Tenax uses fewer raw materials. This smart design allows for larger coils of strap. As a result, it creates up to 40% less packaging waste and lowers transportation costs.

Features & Benefits 

  • Environmental Factors 
    • Majority of polyester comes from recycled materials, providing environmental care. 
    • Some regions use the reclamation process to reduce material waste and re-purpose old materials. 
  • Tenax Smooth Strapping 
    • Can be used for wood/lumber, panel board, metals, bailing, can, construction and general industries. 
  • Tenax Embossed Strapping 
    • Can be used for wood/lumber, panel board, corrugated, paper, baling, construction, logistics and F&B industries.
    • It uses fewer materials to meet the same size and guage (thickness) requirements, designed to handle packages with sharp edges.
