Polywoven Strapping

Polywoven Strapping for Flexible, High-Strength Load Securing

Polywoven strapping is a woven polyester cord strap that combines high tensile strength with flexibility, making it the practical choice for irregular, awkward and shifting loads that rigid strapping struggles to hold. Premium Packaging supplies polywoven strapping in wholesale and bulk quantities to businesses across warehousing, timber, construction, export and freight, delivered Australia-wide from our Sydney base.

What Polywoven Strapping Is

Polywoven strapping, also known as woven cord strapping, is made from polyester filaments woven into a flexible band. Unlike rigid plastic or steel strapping, the woven construction absorbs shock and retains tension even when a load settles or shifts in transit. It is applied with a tensioner and secured with wire buckles rather than crimped seals, which makes it practical for on-site and field use where power tools are not available.

Why Businesses Choose Polywoven Strapping

• High tensile strength. Holds heavy and demanding loads with strong break strength.
• Flexible and shock absorbing. Retains tension when loads settle, shift or compress in transit.
• Safe to handle. No sharp edges, unlike steel strapping, which reduces the risk of operator injury.
• Weather resistant. Suits outdoor storage and export freight exposed to moisture and sunlight.
• Will not damage goods. The soft woven band is gentler on product surfaces and corners than steel.

Common Applications

• Timber and building materials. Bundling packs of timber, boards and profiles that settle in transit.
• Export and container freight. Securing loads through long-haul shipping and handling.
• Irregular and awkward loads. Holding goods that do not sit square or shift during transport.
• Heavy industrial goods. A safer alternative to steel for demanding loads.
• Outdoor and site storage. Bundles held in yards and on sites exposed to the weather.

Polywoven or Poly Strapping

Standard poly strapping suits light to medium cartons and everyday bundling. Polywoven strapping is the choice when loads are heavy, irregular or likely to settle, and where flexibility and weather resistance matter. For maximum tensile strength on rigid loads, compare PET strapping and steel strapping. If you are not sure which suits your loads, our team can recommend the right strap.

Tools and Fasteners for Polywoven Strapping

Polywoven strapping needs its own matched tooling. Secure straps with polywoven seals and buckles, apply tension with polywoven strapping tools, and keep coils tangle-free with a polywoven strapping dispenser. Protect carton and product edges under tension with corner protectors. See the full strapping and accessories range.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is polywoven strapping used for?

It is used to secure heavy, irregular and shifting loads such as timber packs, building materials, export freight and industrial goods. The woven band retains tension when loads settle in transit.

What is the difference between polywoven and poly strapping?

Poly strapping is a rigid plastic band suited to light and medium cartons. Polywoven strapping is a flexible woven cord with higher tensile strength that absorbs shock and holds loads that settle or shift.

Is polywoven strapping a safe alternative to steel?

Yes. It offers strong load holding without the sharp edges of steel, which reduces the risk of operator injury during application and removal.

What tools do I need for polywoven strapping?

Polywoven strapping is applied with a matched tensioner and secured with wire buckles or seals. A dispenser keeps the coil tangle-free at the packing station.

Can I order polywoven strapping in bulk?

Yes. We supply it in wholesale and bulk quantities, with recurring supply available, delivered Australia-wide from our Sydney base.
