Here we answer the most frequently asked questions about our PE stretch film – compact, practical and with clear purchase recommendations.
Which ENO® stretch film is suitable for my application?
For manual wrapping, we recommend hand films such as ENO®easy or the hard special stretch film ENO®xtrem as well as our ENO®ergo (innovative dispenser and specially developed high-performance stretch film).
For machine application with maximum efficiency and low consumption, machine films such as our ENO®wrap types or our ENO®xtrem with very high restoring forces are ideal.
What is the difference between hand film and machine film?
Hand film is flexible for smaller quantities and changing pack sizes. Machine film offers consistent wrapping quality, time and material savings – perfect for logistics, production and e-commerce.
What are the benefits of the ENO®ergo system?
The strain on users is significantly reduced by ENO®ergo. The result: faster processes, less fatigue and lower costs per shipment.
Are there sustainable options?
Yes, ENO®cycle uses recycled content and conserves resources – without sacrificing stability. Ideal for companies with clear sustainability goals and reporting obligations.
What film thickness do I need?
Light, compact goods: 9-12 µm. Mixed pallets/standard: 14-19 µm. Heavy/unstable loads: 19-30+ µm. Tip: Our high-performance and premium films often achieve the same holding force with a lower thickness.
Transparent or black - which is better?
Transparent for visual inspection and barcodes. Black for visual and UV protection and discreet mailings. Choose according to your requirements for theft and privacy protection.
How do I save with premium machine films (e.g. ENO®wrap / ENO®xtrem)?
Better stretch values & tear resistance mean: less film per pallet, fewer reel changes, higher cycle times. This reduces material and process costs – while maintaining transport safety. INFO
Tips for correct diapering (hand & machine)
Uniform pre-tensioning, clean edge fixing and sufficient overlap (at least 50 %).
For machines: select the appropriate pre-setting (pre-tensioning/stretching) for the load.
By hand: use ergonomic dispensers such as ENO®ergo.
Are there narrow rolls/mini rolls
Yes, e.g. ENOflex narrow rolls and ENOflexpack. Perfect for bundling, fixing and securing smaller parcels – fast, clean, without adhesive tape.
What widths, colors and delivery options does ENO® offer?
Hand and machine films in standard widths (50mm to 1000mm, others on request), transparent and colored (incl. black) – with or without core – plus special solutions. On request, we can advise you on the optimum cost/security combination for your pallets.
How does ENO® help me optimize my packaging costs?
We determine your current situation and calculate your actual costs per packaging unit – factually, transparently and easily comprehensible for you.
Thanks to our many years of experience in the field of stretch films and packaging systems, we provide you with targeted support in the analysis, selection and optimization of your packaging solutions.
How does ENO® help with the coordination of machines and consumables?

Your questions about ENO® stretch wrappers and packaging systems. Simplify processes, reduce costs and increase packaging security.
Which ENO® packaging machine is best suited to my production output?
We analyze your packaging requirements and production quantities to recommend the right machine.
Whether you need a compact semi-automatic machine for smaller quantities or a high-performance fully automatic machine for 24/7 operation – we deliver the solution that best suits your needs, available space and budget.
What do I need to consider when choosing between a semi-automatic and a fully automatic machine?
The decision depends on your packaging quantity, process structure and personnel capacity.
A semi-automatic machine is ideal for medium quantities with flexible product sizes, while a fully automatic machine offers maximum efficiency, consistent wrapping quality and reduced personnel requirements.
How can the ENO® machine and consumables be optimally matched?
The machine and stretch film must be in perfect harmony to optimize holding force, film consumption and process speed.
We check your existing equipment, analyse the settings and make specific suggestions for fine-tuning and increasing efficiency.
How does the optimization process work, in which ENO® analyzes my current situation, costs and benefits?
We determine your current situation, calculate your packaging costs per unit and identify potential savings.
We attach great importance to transparent, comprehensible figures and combine analysis with practical advice – factual, correct and understandable.
Which mobile or free-standing stretch wrappers does ENO® offer and what are they suitable for?
Our mobile stretch wrappers are particularly flexible and can be easily deployed at different workstations – ideal for companies with changing packaging locations.
Freestanding pallet wrappers offer maximum stability and efficiency for series packaging in continuous operation.
How quickly does an ENO® machine pay for itself through savings in film costs and increased efficiency?
In many cases , ENO® packaging machines pay for themselves after just a few months.
Lower film consumption, reduced personnel costs and shorter packaging times result in sustainable cost benefits and measurable savings.
What safety and ergonomic features do ENO® packaging machines have?
Our machines are designed for safety, user-friendliness and ergonomics.
Automatic film feeders, smooth-running turntables, emergency stop systems and intuitive controls reduce stress and ensure safe operation.
What services does ENO® offer in addition to the machine (e.g. maintenance, advice, spare parts)?
We support you beyond the purchase with comprehensive service, maintenance, spare parts supply and training.
Our experts are always available for technical support, process optimization and operator training.
Can I also get machine solutions for specialized applications (e.g. extremely low height, special format) from ENO®?
Yes, we develop individual machine concepts for special requirements – e.g. for low installation heights, special product shapes or special film properties.
Together with you, we realize tailor-made solutions for every packaging situation.
How is an ENO® packaging machine installed and commissioned - and what training is included?
Installation is carried out by our trained service technicians directly at your premises.
After commissioning, you will receive instruction and training so that your team can operate the machine safely and efficiently – for a smooth start to the packaging process.
With us, you get everything from a single source! We determine your current situation, calculate your costs per packaging unit, factually, correctly and in a way that is easy for you to understand. With our many years of experience, we support you in the search for and selection of packaging solutions.
