Frequently Asked Questions
StackStrip is a patented air-filled adhesive strip designed to prevent double stacking of palletized freight during shipping and warehousing. Each strip measures 36 inches long by 3 inches wide and attaches to the top of your pallet.
When another pallet is placed on top, the air chamber inside the strip pops, providing clear evidence that your freight has been double stacked. The bright red "Do Not Double Stack" warning printed on each strip also serves as a visual deterrent to handlers.
Applying StackStrips is a simple three-step process. First, peel the removable backing to expose the adhesive layer. Second, stick the strip to the top surface of your palletized freight. Third, ship your freight as normal.
No special tools, training, or equipment is required. The strong adhesive backing ensures a secure bond to most packaging surfaces including corrugated cardboard, shrink wrap, and stretch film.
A popped StackStrip is a clear indicator that your pallet was double stacked at some point during transit. This gives you tangible evidence to inspect the freight more closely for damage before accepting the delivery.
You can document the popped strip with photos and notate the suspected damage with the delivery agent. This documentation strengthens your position when filing freight damage claims with the carrier.
Each package contains 36 StackStrips, which works out to approximately $1.39 per strip at the single-package price of $49.95. When you order two or more packages, the price drops to $47.50 per package, bringing the per-strip cost down to about $1.32.
Considering the cost of damaged freight, which can run into thousands of dollars per incident, StackStrips provide an affordable layer of protection for your most sensitive shipments.
