Stretch wrap film and its method of production

A method of producing a reinforced stretch film comprising the steps of:

• providing an elongated base sheet of plastic stretch film having a longitudinal axis;
• forming a plurality of cord-like, elongated reinforcement members from a sheet of plastic stretch film other than the elongated base sheet;
• forming a plurality of plastic film strip overlays from a sheet of plastic stretch film other than the elongated base sheet;
• positioning the plurality of cord-like, elongated reinforcement members on the elongated base sheet where the cord-like, elongated reinforcement members extend along the longitudinal axis of the elongated base sheet;
• positioning the plurality of plastic film strip overlay over each of the cord-like, elongated reinforcement members where the plastic film strip overlays are parallel and spaced from one another;
• folding each edge of the elongated base sheet of plastic stretch film inward toward a center of the elongated base sheet creating a folded edge to further strengthen and reinforce each edge;
• and
• sandwiching the cord-like, elongated reinforcement members between the elongated base sheet, the plastic film strip overlays and/or the folded edges;
• attaching the plastic film strip overlays and the folded edges to the cord-like, elongated reinforcement members and to the elongated base sheet by:
• holding the plastic film strip overlays and the folded edges onto the cord-like, elongated reinforcement members and to the elongated base sheet via static electricity;
• laminating the plastic film strip overlays and the folded edges to the cord-like, elongated reinforcement members and to the elongated base sheet;
• and
• sealing the plastic film strip overlays and the folded edges to the cord-like, elongated reinforcement members and to the elongated base sheet via a sonic welder;
• whereby, the plastic film strip overlays and the cord-like, elongated reinforcement members define_elongated spaces therebetween.
