What's Wrong With What You're Using Now?
Polypropylene (PP) strapping might seem like the easy swap, but it loses tension over time. Put a PP-strapped pallet on a truck crossing the country and by the time it arrives, that load has shifted and your strap is slack. PP simply isn't engineered for the weight and distance that modern North American freight demands.
There's a third option that fixes both problems and it's what serious operations are switching to.
PET Strapping: Built for the Way North America Ships
PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) strapping is the heavy-duty banding that's become the go-to choice for industrial operations that need the strength of steel without the headaches.
Here's why it works:
It holds tension all the way to delivery. PET has exceptional elastic recovery, meaning it stays tight even as loads settle and shift on long hauls. From a distribution center in Dallas to a job site in Denver your shipment arrives the way it left.
It's safe to handle. No sharp edges. No recoil. Your team handles it with standard strapping tools and goes home in one piece. That matters everywhere, but especially as workplace safety standards and liability costs continue to rise across North America.
It's recyclable. PET is one of the most widely recycled plastics in the U.S. As more companies face customer and regulatory pressure to improve sustainability metrics, PET is a practical, visible step in the right direction.
Southgate Global's PET Strapping Range
We offer four premium PET strapping options, purpose-built for demanding industrial and logistics environments. Every coil is engineered to the same standard, reliable performance every time.
Premium Green Smooth PET Strapping 5/8 x 4000' - $134.99
Ideal for medium-to-heavy palletized loads, this is the strap that handles the day-to-day grind across manufacturing floors, distribution centers, and freight operations. At 4,000 feet per coil, you get exceptional run time between changeovers.
Available in two finishes:
Green Smooth — Built for friction weld tools and semi-automatic strapping machines. Feeds cleanly and consistently for high-speed applications.
Green Embossed — Textured finish that grips harder under tension and holds seals more securely. The right choice for manual tensioning and any application where seal integrity is critical.
Also Available in 1/2" and 3/4". View the Southgate U.S range of PET Strapping.
Not Just The Strapping, The Complete System
A great strap is only as good as the tools behind it. That's why Southgate doesn't just sell consumables we offer the complete strapping ecosystem.
RXT Heavy Duty Friction Weld Tools are available in 1/2″, 5/8″, and 3/4″ configurations. Each tool comes with two 18V Li-Ion batteries and a charger included ready to work out of the box, no extra purchases needed. Pricing starts at $3,599.99.
Heavy Duty Offset Sealers are available for both 5/8″ and 3/4″ strap at $284.99 each built for reliable, consistent seals in fast-moving environments.
When your strap and your tools come from the same supplier, backed by the same support team, compatibility is guaranteed and troubleshooting is fast. That's the Southgate difference.
Who Is This Built For?
Southgate's PET strapping is the right call for any operation where load security paramount to success.
Oil, Gas & Energy: Pipe bundling, equipment packaging, and materials shipments in demanding outdoor conditions require strapping that won't fail in the field.
Construction & Building Materials: Lumber, brick, roofing materials, and structural components heading to job sites need a strap that holds through rough freight and seasonal extremes.
Manufacturing & Industrial: From steel components to fabricated parts, heavy manufacturing output needs strapping rated for the load.
3PL & Distribution: High-volume fulfilment operations need a strap that performs consistently shift after shift, coast to coast.
Rail Freight: Our 5/8″ strapping carries AAR certified, meeting the rigorous loading standards required for rail across North America. If your freight moves by rail or could in the future this what you need.
