PET Strapping
Strong, dependable PET strapping built for New Zealand’s warehouses, exporters and manufacturers. Secure every load, every time.
What Is PET Strapping
PET strapping is a heavy duty polyester strap used to bind, secure and load-lock palletised goods during storage and transport. It replaces steel strapping in most applications, offering similar break strength with far less risk to handlers and freight.
CUSTOMPACK supplies PET strapping band in ECO, Standard and Premium grades, in smooth or embossed finish. Green strap suits NZ businesses across export, warehousing, manufacturing and construction.
PET strapping suits a wide range of NZ industries, including:

Smooth or Embossed: Which Grip Wins Your Load?
Smooth PET strapping, the green strapping roll, feeds cleanly through automatic machines with less friction, ideal for consistent, high-volume palletised loads moving through the line.
Embossed PET strapping grips harder on bulky, irregular or steel-replacement loads like wool bales and scrap metal. Both finishes come in Eco, Standard and Premium grades, with green strap available across the range.
Why Choose PET Strapping
Handler safety
No sharp edges like steel strap. Reduces injury risk during application and removal.
Recyclable material
PET strap can be recycled, supporting sustainable packaging goals.
High tensile strength
Holds tension across long freight runs and export shipments
UV and moisture resistant
Holds up in outdoor storage and export container transit.
Fast, safe application
Tensions and seals in seconds with hand tools or machines.
No load loosening
Keeps constant tension in transit, unlike steel which can spring back.
