FROMM Packaging Australia is the leading supplier of semi-automatic and automatic pallet wrappers and stretch wrapping machines to warehouses and packaging facilities across Australia.
Our entry-level pallet wrappers offer a cost-effective solution for small to medium sized operations seeking to enhance efficiency by reducing the time spent on manual wrapping. For larger volume requirements, our advanced automatic stretch wrapping machines provide a seamless, single-touch wrapping experience, enabling employees to streamline their workflow with just a press of a button.
Semi-Automatic Machines
Semi-Automatic Machines: Semi-automatic stretch wrappers are suitable for businesses that have medium-volume operations. With a good balance of efficiency and cost-savings, they’re the ideal choice for facilities that need to secure packages regularly but may not necessarily have the work volume or budget for a fully automatic system. They require an operator to load and position pallets but can ensure consistent stretch and film application for every cycle.
Automatic/ Inline Machines
Automatic/Inline Machines: Automatic stretch wrapping machines are ideal for high-volume operations where efficiency is crucial. A fully automatic pallet wrapping machine is a must for any high-volume distribution centre. FROMM is a leading supplier of automatic solutions and has engineered a strong line of automatic pallet wrapping machines that can optimise and integrate into any packaging line.
Orbital Machines
Orbital Machines: An orbital stretch wrapper is the best choice for wrapping circular or irregularly shaped products. These pallet wrapping machines are particularly useful for wrapping items like coils and tubes, providing excellent coverage and stability when in transit. If you regularly handle products in unique shapes and sizes, an orbital machine’s functionality may be a great choice for you.
Wraps & Films
Wraps & Films: Pallet wrap, also known as stretch wrap or film, is a consumable used in the packaging and transportation of goods. It provides a layer of protection for products during transit, ensuring that they arrive at their destination in excellent condition. Stretch wrap can be applied in various ways, such as with the use of hand-held applicators or automated pallet wrapping machines, with varying strength, durability and eco-friendly properties.

Wrapping Machine FAQs
Using a stretch wrapping machine makes all the difference from a presentation, load integrity, and cost-efficiency standpoint. Apart from being labour-intensive, wrapping pallets by hand is inconsistent. Poorly wrapped packages may be damaged during transit and present a safety risk when they arrive at their destination. A pallet wrapping machine can be easily adjusted to accommodate pallets of different shapes and sizes and secure them to a high standard with every use. In addition to enhancing presentation to securing loads, pallet wrapping machines unitise stretch wrap more efficiently. Investing in a wrapping machine can lead to saving of up to 40% in film costs for businesses, making it a comprehensive solution for a growing business.
Selecting the right pallet stretch wrapping machine depends on your operational needs. For businesses wrapping fewer than 15 pallets daily, a semi automatic machine is a great choice since it can help you get work done at a friendlier price point. If you’re wrapping more than 20 pallets daily, you may need an automatic pallet wrap machine to secure packages efficiently.
Following the points above, we recommend that you use our handy product finder page to determine which pallet wrapping machine will fit your needs best. If you’re still having trouble, you can also take a look at our guide to selecting the right pallet wrapping machine.
To help you maximise your investment, FROMM Packaging Australia team can provide you with expert advice to ensure that your pallet wrapping machine performs effectively. With our FROMM Advantage service, we use formal guidelines set by the NTC and can conduct specialised testing utilising our FROMM Transport Simulator to guarantee that your pallets are securely wrapped and meet industry standards.

FROMM has a wide range of Semi Automatic and Automatic Inline Wrapping Machines that are fitted with sensors that detect the pallet height (with optional photocells available to detect dark film colours and pallets).
It's called Stretch Film for a reason. Its designed to be stretched. Different formulations and different stretching systems (film carriages) give different outcomes.
Pre stretch is the process of stretching the film in a pre stretch carriage PRIOR to applying it to the load to be wrapped. This is in comparison to a 'force to load' machine where the force to apply the stretch is applied between the film on the pallet and the machine carriage.
A FROMM pre-stretch film carriage, when combined with our machine grade stretch film, delivers outstanding and consistent results. FROMM Stretch Film can stretch up to 250%, providing excellent value by converting one metre roll into 3.5 metres on your pallet. Using less machine film not only benefits the environment but also provides cost savings for the business.
Yes, scales can be added to most wrapping machines, and they can speed up the despatch process allowing you to wrap, weigh and despatch your goods within minutes.
The scales are integrated within the wrapping machine and are an optional feature that out service team can install.
A force to load machine, offers little stretching of the film and would normally be recommended for lower volume operations (i.e. less than 15 pallets per day). A force to load machine relies on the pallet pulling the film off the roll with a brake, allowing a low stretch.
FROMM has developed an innovative HYBRID film to get the best results from “force to load” film delivery system.
In contrast, a pre-stretch machine does exactly what it says. It stretches the film through a series of rollers on the carriage, prior to the film being applied to the pallet. It will give you the lowest possible cost per pallet wrapped whilst maintaining load integrity.
The cost for pallet wrapping machines can vary depending on their features and performance. The question to answer first is “How much is your production output?”. Knowing how many pallets you need to wrap per day will help you find a suitable pallet wrapper that matches your budget and operational needs.
Let's be honest: having someone manually wrapping a pallet in a bustling despatch area not only poses a safety risk but is also highly inefficient. By using a pallet stretch wrapping machine, you can optimise your packing processes and enjoy the following benefits:
-Improved productivity
-Safer and more secure pallet loads
-More cost-efficient use of stretch wraps
-Ability to wrap irregular or tall pallets
-Reduced workplace hazards
