Why Choose Perforated, Ventilated or Breathable Pallet Wrap?
Traditional solid pallet wrap traps heat, condensation and gases, putting packaging, shelf life and operational flow at risk. ExcelAir ventilated pallet film solves this by using engineered airflow while retaining the load stability needed for real transport environments.
- ✓ Airflow and ventilation to let goods breathe
- ✓ Faster cooling and improved temperature control
- ✓ Strength and stability, tested up to 1,500kg loads
- ✓ Condensation reduction for labels, cartons and product quality
- ✓ Lower plastic weight and reduced waste
- ✓ Improved wrapping, cooling and dispatch efficiency
Industries Using Perforated & Ventilated Pallet Wrap
ExcelAir is used across industries where airflow, moisture control, cooling speed and pallet security directly affect product quality, rejection rates and despatch performance.
Fresh Produce
Keeps fruits, vegetables and salads fresher for longer by reducing moisture, mould and excess gases.
Ready Meals
Accelerates cooling, limits condensation on packaging and supports chilled food safety during transit.
Aluminium Cans
Helps reduce cooling delays in hot-fill canned foods and beverages while maintaining pallet safety.
Horticulture
Allows watering and ventilation while wrapped, protecting plants, shrubs and Danish trolleys.

Prevents moisture build-up, protects labels and keeps jars and bottles secure and market-ready.
Cheese
Supports airflow and temperature control, helping reduce mould risk and temperature safety concerns.
Frozen Foods
Improves freezing efficiency and reduces blast-chilling time while keeping pallets stable.
Cardboard & Corrugated
Lets heat escape from sheet products, supporting faster despatch and smoother production flow.
Sauces
Reduces condensation in bottled sauces, condiments and preserves so pallets can ship faster.
Chilled Meats
Supports cold-chain movement by improving ventilation and helping maintain efficient temperature pull-down.
Beverages
Reduces condensation, stabilises loads and supports efficient transport for drinks products.
Fruits
Extends freshness by reducing mould, condensation and gas build-up from farm to shelf.
Solid vs Perforated Pallet Wrap

Cost-Saving & Sustainability Benefits
Switching from traditional solid wrap to ExcelAir perforated, ventilated and breathable pallet wrap can cut waste and cost while protecting product quality, packaging integrity and brand reputation.
Faster Cooling, Lower Energy
Ventilation through the load promotes quicker temperature pull-down, improved chilling and smoother despatch.
Cut Re-Wrapping & Product Losses
Engineered airflow helps stop condensation damage, label failure, rewraps and rejected pallets.
Leaner, Sustainable Operations
Less film, fewer re-wraps and smoother despatch mean lower cost and a smaller operational footprint.
Recycled Content
ExcelAir perforated stretch films can include recycled plastic material to support sustainable packaging targets.
Protect Packaging
By letting heat and vapour escape, ExcelAir helps keep cartons, labels, glass and cans in better condition.
Reduce Plastic Usage
ExcelAir can secure pallets with less film per load, lowering material spend, plastic weight and disposal cost.
How ExcelAir Works
ExcelAir is engineered to give pallets the balance of strength and breathability. Precision perforations allow airflow through the load, helping prevent condensation, speed cooling and protect packaging integrity.
Built-In Ventilation
Perforations act as controlled airflow channels, letting heat, vapour and gases escape while supporting pallet containment.
Strength & Stability
ExcelAir combines stretch film performance with reinforced structure so heavy loads remain stable in the real world.
Machine & Hand Compatibility
ExcelAir runs on pallet wrapping machines and is available in hand roll formats for mixed warehouse environments.
Solid Wrap vs ExcelAir Perforated Pallet Wrap
Solid stretch film can be correct for some loads, but it is often the wrong choice when products need airflow, fast cooling or condensation control.
| Feature | Traditional Solid Wrap | ExcelAir Perforated Wrap |
|---|---|---|
| Ventilation | Traps heat, moisture and gases | Built-in airflow channels keep loads ventilated |
| Condensation Control | Can cause wet packaging and damaged labels | Helps reduce condensation and moisture build-up |
| Cooling Speed | Can create chilling delays before despatch | Allows faster temperature pull-down |
| Load Stability | Often uses more film to compensate | Tested for heavy loads with engineered containment |
| Sustainability | Higher plastic weight and disposal cost | Lower plastic weight and recycled content options |
| Operational Efficiency | Rewraps and rejected pallets are more likely on moisture-sensitive loads | Fewer rejects, smoother despatch and better product presentation |
Trapped Heat, Condensation & Cooling Delays?
Standard solid pallet wrap can trap heat and moisture inside wrapped loads, creating condensation, delayed cooling, wet packaging, rejected deliveries and shelf-life problems across food, chilled and pharmaceutical operations.
ExcelAir perforated pallet wrap is designed to allow airflow through the pallet while still maintaining containment force and pallet stability.
