Banding and bundling, a way to contain small items for shipping or storage with stretch film, eliminates the need for tape, string, strapping, and other conventional securing methods that mar product surfaces. Narrow width stretch film stretches more than the wider widths while still retaining much of its memory/recovery properties. This allows the stretch wrap to recover and form-fit the objects - tightly banding them together. Tape, string, or strapping does not continually provide the same form-fitted wrap that stretch film provides even as the objects settle. Better yet, stretch film does this without adhesives. No adhesives mean that there is no sticky residue left behind or boxes surfaces torn up when removed.
