{"product_id":"fleje-de-poliester-pet","title":"Polyester (PET) strapping","description":"\u003cp\u003eSecuring heavy-duty cargo pallets with the strength of steel but without its operational risks requires strapping that maintains tension throughout the journey, absorbs transport vibration, and does not rust the merchandise.

Economic PET quickly loses tension because the polyester formulation is of lower quality and the gauge is irregular, causing the seals to loosen with truck vibration. Fortemo works with virgin polyester and controls the gauge within narrow tolerances, which results in loads arriving at their destination with the same securement as when they departed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"background-color: #F3F6F3; padding: clamp(14px, 4vw, 18px); margin-top: 20px; font-size: 0.9em; color: #555555; border-radius: 8px;\"\u003e\n  \u003cstrong style=\"color: #006902;\"\u003eAlso known as:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n  \u003cstrong\u003eTechnical:\u003c\/strong\u003e polyester strapping, PET strapping, polyester tape, PET strapping, polyester strapping, industrial green strapping.\n  \u003cstrong\u003eIn DR and Caribbean:\u003c\/strong\u003e zuncho verde, fleje verde, cinta de poliéster, zuncho industrial, fleje pesado plástico.\n  \u003cstrong\u003eIn other countries:\u003c\/strong\u003e PET strap (USA), polyester strapping (USA), zuncho PET (MX, CO), correa pesada de embalaje (LATAM).\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"FORTEMO","offers":[{"title":"16 mm (5\/8 in) wide and 1 mm (0.04 in) thick [1200 m (3937 ft) coil] \/ 406 mm (16 in) in diameter and 152 mm (6 in) in width \/ Green","offer_id":52547705405768,"sku":"887489","price":12747.0,"currency_code":"DOP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0916\/9751\/2776\/files\/rollo-fleje-poliester-pet-verde-punta-cana.png?v=1771869862","url":"https:\/\/dodom.com\/en\/products\/polyester-pet-strapping","provider":"Dodom","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
