Polyester strapping also known as PET strapping is used when regular polypropylene strapping isn't strong enough to get the job done. Polyester strap most closely resembles steel strapping in its physical characteristics.
Polyester strapping will withstand higher tensioning than other plastic strapping up to 25% higher, with equivalent break strengths. It will retain tension on rigid loads better than other non-metallic strapping.
Quality polyester strapping is virtually unaffected by weather or ultraviolet rays. It is significantly lower in cost than steel strapping, a lot safer to use, and easier to dispose of too. Just imagine on how to get rid of steel strapping waste? Polyester strapping is also much safer to use then metal strapping since it has no sharp edges.
Considering all of the above, polyester strapping has become a wise choice as a steel strapping replacement."
From the above facts just imagine how we cut and blistered our fingers in order to learn something new in the name of crafts and we weaved something astonishingly beautiful products.
