Polywoven Strap
Description
Polywoven Strapping (Woven Polyester): Heavy-Duty Plastic Strap for Safer Pallet Strapping
When you need serious holding power without the hazards of steel, choose polywoven strapping (also called woven polyester strapping). Made from high-tenacity polyester yarns, it’s light, strong, non-sparking and kind to edges—perfect for bundling product, securing awkward shapes, and pallet strapping in busy warehouses and on the road.
Why teams switch to woven polyester
- Heavy-duty performance: High tensile strength with controlled elongation—ideal for heavy duty plastic strap applications.
- WHS-friendly: No sharp edges, no spring-back like steel, and safer to cut and dispose of.
- Surface-safe: Gentle on timber, coated metals, appliances and painted cartons (use corners/angles for best results).
- Weather-resistant: Won’t rust; great for outdoor storage and transport.
- Re-tensionable: Use with wire buckles to tighten again after settling or long transit.
- Lightweight & portable: Easy to move around sites, trucks, and remote project locations.
Where polywoven strapping shines
Export packs, timber and joinery, whitegoods, machinery, glass crates, building products, irregular bundles, and pallet strapping where steel is impractical or a safety risk.
How to choose the right woven strap
- Load weight & profile: Heavier/taller pallets → step up to higher break strains and wider strap.
- Application method: For field work and mixed shapes, pair woven polyester strapping with wire buckles for fast, knot-free joins.
- Edge protection: Use corner protectors/angles on sharp or fragile edges to maintain strap tension and product finish.
Product specifications

Note: Line colours are a quick visual guide to grade. Always confirm break strain against your load and safety factors.
Recommended tools & fittings
- Wire buckles (phosphate-coated) matched to strap width for strong, re-tensionable joins
- Manual tensioner for fast take-up; dispensers to keep strap feeding cleanly
- Corner protectors/angles for sharp edges and even load distribution
FAQs: polywoven & woven polyester strapping
- Is polywoven strapping suitable for pallet strapping?
- Yes—its high break strains and forgiving edges make it excellent for pallet strapping, especially on mixed or fragile loads.
- How does woven polyester strapping compare to steel?
- It’s lighter, safer to handle, and won’t rust. While steel has higher heat resistance and very high tensile options, woven polyester covers many heavy-duty applications with fewer WHS risks.
- What buckle should I use?
- Use phosphate-coated wire buckles sized to your strap (e.g., 16 mm or 19 mm). They grip the weave securely and allow re-tensioning after settlement.
- Can I re-tension heavy duty plastic strap after loading?
- Yes. That’s a key benefit of woven polyester with wire buckles—tighten again after transit or product settlement.
