Yellow Jacket: The Complete Source for Orbital Packaging Solutions
Yellow Jacket orbital lock-down stretch wrap technology for secure, safe and superior pack-to-ship performance is available from GaleWrap. Yellow Jacket's orbital lock-down stretch wrap technology moves a horizontally positioned stretch wrap dispenser around and under a load, securely locking standard, oversized or odd-shaped loads without bands. Yellow Jacket is the complete source of orbital packaging solutions with stretch wrap technology to lock standard, odd-shaped, long and other loads securely to the pallet right on the forks of the forklift, protecting loads against damage, dust and wind. Orbital stretch wrapping eliminates hand wrapping, banding, strapping and decreases injuries and the manpower needed to secure loads for shipping. Various machine diameters are available in manual, semi-automatic and automatic models. In 2007 Yellow Jacket moved to GaleWrap in Douglasville, GA, though the Yellow Jacket brand name, equipment and sales/marketing focus remained the same.
