Polypropylene strapping tape Dylastic®

printed

Summary The Dylastic® polypropylene strapping from Signode is a range of PP bands designed for manual and high-production machine strapping, offering controlled surface properties, UV protection and eco-responsible options (PCR and biobased).

About the Dylastic range The Dylastic range provides PP bands in multiple specifications, including options made from PCR (post-consumer recycled) resin and a biobased alternative. Strapping is available in various widths, thicknesses and lengths to meet diverse packaging and transport needs.

Dylastic PP Standard polypropylene strapping intended for light to medium applications.

• Designed for bundles, parcels, newspapers and magazines.
• Additional protection for fragile and valuable goods.
• Resistant to temperature fluctuations.
• Cost-effective solution for logistics and transport security.
• Available in recycled PP option to reduce environmental impact.

Dylastic Pro Strapping with a patented embossing process (S-pattern embossing) optimized for semi-automatic and fully automated machines.

• Patented embossing process delivering up to 33% extra capacity per reel (up to 6,000 m).
• S-pattern embossing provides superior mechanical properties compared with diamond embossing, optimizing machine performance and reducing carbon footprint.
• High rigidity and low curl for optimal machine feeding.

Dylastic PCR Strapping manufactured with at least 30% post-consumer recycled material, suitable for both manual and machine use. PCR means post-consumer recycled: plastics made from waste collected after household and commercial/industrial use. PCR bands retain comparable properties to standard bands and help reduce carbon footprint.

• Manufactured with 30% post-consumer recycled content.
• Maintains strength and benefits of traditional Dylastic.
• Suitable for bulk packages and newspapers.
• Controlled surface properties minimize tensioning effort and improve tension transfer at corners.

Dylastic Bio Biobased PP strapping, manufactured with at least 40% raw materials of biological origin (corn, cassava, sugarcane, beet pulp, etc.). This product aims to reduce the share of fossil-based virgin plastic and can lower CO2 emissions by around 50% while retaining standard Dylastic characteristics.

• Biobased solution with >= 40% biological-origin raw materials, estimated CO2 emissions reduction of about 50%.
• Compatible with Signode manual tools and equipment range.
• Configurable according to the percentage of biobased content (minimum 40%).
• Durable and customizable (printable band).
