Unipak is proud to present our netwrap range of products. Our range delivers high strength bale wrapping solutions for the most demanding conditions. Using high grade polymers and high UV protection in it’s premium blends, guarantees that our netwrap protects your valuable round bales against the harsh Australian climate. With a wide window of applications to choose from, our net wrap products work very well in all balers & spreading systems.

Unipak Net Wrap Product Range

All the Unipak net wrap products are manufactured under very strict quality control standards. We have a proven track record for high reliability and durability. Our net wrap is regularly used in the most harsh and extreme of Australian conditions; in North Queensland, Western NSW, Northern Territory, South Australia, North West WA and Tasmania. We produce our bale netwrap with a high level of UV stability for Australian conditions and we guarantee it.

How is our net wrap constructed

All of our net wrap is constructed from the same strong and enduring HDPE materials throughout the entire design. During the manufacturing process, the master batch, raw materials and UV stabilisers are exacted to the same quality standard every single time. The end result is a net wrap range that performs extremely well all the time, across all round baling machine types, and produces consistency and longevity season after season.

Whatever crop type or fodder material you are baling, our round bale net wrap products possess excellent tensile strength, sufficient elongation and great width coverage, making it easy to use and producing great quality round bales. And our high-quality net wrap range all come in guaranteed roll lengths.

Coming in 3 widths; ‘side to side’ 1.23m width / spreading from one bale edge to edge on the opposite side, ‘wide edge’ 1.25m width to suit Welger round balers. Lastly ‘over the side’, which cover edge sides of the bale with its 1.3m width, is more to suit machines such as John Deere round balers, Unipak provides you with a smooth run net wrap product that works well for all applications and for all round baling machines.

How to Choose a Net Wrap

Please check out our knowledge guide, ‘Which Netwrap ’ chart to see which size application suits your particular baling machine if you are unsure.

We do suggest using a suitable number of wraps according to crop type, conditions, handling, transport and storage, to best allow protection of your hay straw and silage resources. We recommend 3 x round for 4’6” silage bales, 4 x round for 5’ hay bales, and 5x round for 4’ hay bales.

Min Recommended # Wraps & Bale Sizes Bales per 3000 m Roll
Silage - 3 x wraps around for 4’ silage bales Approximately 260 bales per roll
Hay - 4 x wraps around for 5’ hay bales Approximately 155 bales per roll
Straw - 5 x wraps around for 4’6” bales Approximately 140 bales per roll

Add more to suit high handling and transport post-baling – also extreme conditions, compression or extremes in temperature:

  • limit barley straw bales to 4’6” bales and add more net as necessary as force and expansion can be extreme
  • variables such as short chop vs long chop material, add more net for short chop or springy material as necessary
  • extremes in temp variation cold nights to hot days, add more net as necessary to contain expansion / contraction
  • high handling and transport post baling – add more net as necessary to counter any additional wear bales will experience
  • If the net will be challenged on multiples of the above conditions, please contact us re one of our higher kg force net products
