Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for packaging a compressible product in a compressed state, comprising the step of sealing at least two parts of a polymeric machine direction oriented (MDO) film which encloses at least part of the compressible product in the compressed state, characterized in that the seal has a seal elongation at failure of about 20% to about 100%, as measured in accordance with ASTM F88/F88M-09. The present invention also relates to a compressible product in a compressed state packaged in a polymeric MDO film which encloses at least part of the compressible product, wherein at least two parts of the MDO film are sealed and characterized in that the seal has a seal elongation at failure of about 20% to about 100%, as measured in accordance with ASTM F88/F88M-09.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a prestretched agricultural stretch wrap film which is used for baling applications when packaging for example grass, maize, sugar beet pulp, malt, straw, household refuse and the like. The prestretched agricultural stretch wrap film according to the present invention is produced by prestretching a polyethylene-containing co-extruded blown film, which comprises at least two layers joined to one another, in the longitudinal direction by at most 70%, so that it still retains an elongation capability in the longitudinal direction of at least 310% or so that a force is to be exerted on said film of less than 6 N in order to stretch the film by 75% in the longitudinal direction.
