Product catalog summary
Prestretched Film Production in a Single Shot
This section discusses the advantages of prestretched films over traditional stretch films. Prestretched films require less energy for application, are lighter, and reduce material costs. Macro's Blown Prestretch (BPS) Film Line produces high-quality prestretched film rolls using a single process that minimizes waste and costs.

New Patent for Macro’s D10 PRO Automatic Air Ring
Macro has patented an upgraded D10 PRO automatic air ring, which simplifies operation and improves reliability. It features new valves, motors, and software, and offers two scanning methods for film thickness measurement.
