We have seen this at large retail store chains like Wal-Mart, Kroger, and K-Mart. Retail chains often use opaque stretch film to help with the look of their display or to conceal their display before the order begins. They often use a black or white stretch film to wrap around the bottom or top of a display for a variety of sale items.
Printed Logos
This is actually a fairly common use of stretch film from our clients. Opaques stretch film makes a great backing for printing logos or messages on the film. Some people choose to use a clear wrap, but the opaque really helps to make the print “pop”. White is the most commonly used stretch film for printing logos, but black works great if there are no black lettering in your message. We sell a lot of printed stretch wrap to a variety of companies ranging from clean up restoration companies to warehouses shipping to retail stores. Orders for printed stretch wrap require a 1 pallet min. and commonly come with a 2-3 week lead time.
