Why do experts choose haylage stretch film?
It is agricultural film that is used by farms that set themselves the goal of maintaining high-quality forage throughout the year. Of course, in turn, this allows you to increase milk yield, increase the yield of young animals, provide healthy nutrition to animals, and therefore receive tasty and high-quality milk in any conditions.
It is important that when wrapping haylage, the edges of the agricultural film of agrostretch adhere as closely as possible to each other. This reduces the amount of fresh air that gets inside and promotes decay.
And in dry and hot climates, the foil, on the contrary, maintains sufficient feed moisture - about 60 percent, which is the optimal indicator for preserving haylage.
The film is wound on sleeves that do not get wet under any conditions. They can also be recyclable, thereby reducing
environmental pollution. Each roll has its own protection - a special cardboard box that simplifies storage and transportation of products.
This makes it easy to select exactly the kind of product that best suits the needs of your company.

Production technology
In the manufacture of agrostretch, only high quality primary polyethylene is used. In order for the material to be strong and elastic, in the process of manufacturing the material, manufacturers add various impurities of a chemical nature. The starting material is initially polymerized, this procedure contributes to the resistance to UV radiation.
To obtain silage agrofilm, the manufacturer uses a modern extrusion machine, on which you can set precise settings for the output characteristics of the material. Thanks to this technology, the film is obtained with precise characteristics, without deviations in thickness. During the manufacture of agrostretch, the extrusion method with ethylene granules is used.
Agrostretch "TRIOPLAST"
One of the leaders in this area is the Swedish company TRIOPLAST. It is she who today is the leading manufacturer in the European market. In many European countries today, agrostretch is used - a film designed to store feed for herbivores.
This film has a number of advantages:
- low cost;
- ease of use;
- high efficiency;
- durability.
TRIOPLAST has been developing, producing and selling packaging films for many years. The main material that is part of the agrostretch film is high-quality polyethylene - reliable, durable and cheap.
TRIOPLAST products are high quality agro-stretch films, consisting of three layers. It is produced by the blowing method, which makes it possible to achieve an excellent result - it is simply impossible to obtain products of this quality level using the classical injection method.
After blowing, a more elastic and sticky film is obtained - exactly what an agro-stretch film should be. This agricultural film provides high-quality protection of the hay bale not only from moisture, but also from air and UV radiation. This ensures optimum moisture content, which significantly reduces the loss of silage.
Description and purpose
Agrostretch is a type of multilayer film used for packing and storing silage. The use of this material for silage, hay contributes to the automation and simplification of collection and packaging of feed. In the modern market, rolls of silage agrofilm are in great demand.
Agrofilm is characterized by the following properties:
- elasticity, extensibility;
- multilayer structure, due to which the film has high performance capabilities;
- strength and resistance to mechanical stress;
- stickiness, the presence of a high holding force, which guarantees the density of the bale structure;
- low oxygen permeability, which is necessary for the safety of feed and haylage;
- UV resistance;
- optical density, without which the protection of the product from sunlight would be impossible.
Manufacturers overview
Today, many manufacturing companies are engaged in the sale of packaging materials for the preparation of feed for cattle. Products made in Russia and abroad are very popular.
The most popular manufacturers include those presented below.
- AGROCROP. Produces a product with high European quality. The use of this product is used in the collection and storage of silage. Due to the high quality of the agrostretch, the consumer can count on the tightness of the winding and the safety of the product.
- Polifilm. Silage German film is black and white. It is made from 100% polyethylene. The products of this company are characterized by good indicators of strength, stability and stability.
- Rani. This type of silage film is produced in Finland. When using this agrostretch, it is possible to achieve maturation and preservation of all important mineral components of the feed. The material is characterized by high elasticity, stickiness and good holding effect.
- Agrovector is a trench type of film produced by Trioplast. The product is characterized by compliance with all quality requirements and standards. Among the advantages of agrostretch, consumers point out a large width, which helps to reduce labor costs.
- Eurofilm. Polyethylene film from this manufacturer has found its application in household needs. The product is capable of performing covering, greenhouse functions.
- Raista. The film is produced at an enterprise called "Biocom Technology". Agrostretch is characterized by high quality, durability, does not puncture. The product is considered to be suitable for various windings and has a high application efficiency.
Whichever brand of agrostretch the consumer chooses, when using film, it is worth adhering to the following rules:
- store the product in a dry and shaded room;
- open the box correctly so as not to damage the film;
- wrap with an overlap of more than 50 percent in 4-6 layers.
It is also worth remembering that this product in its packaging can be stored for about 36 months. If you use an agrostretch with an expired shelf life, then the coating will not adhere well and protect the feed from ultraviolet radiation.
