Checking silage film compatibility with your wrapper
Provide the bale dimensions, wrapper model and storage conditions. Confirm roll width, core size, colour and the grade requirements with the supplier. Review the wrapper instructions and conduct a sample run. Check coverage and film integrity around the bale. Agree the handling and storage requirements alongside the film specification instead of selecting by colour alone.
Tell the supplier how the bales are formed, moved and stored. Include the shape, typical surface condition and the contact points used by your handling equipment. These details help identify the practical conditions the film needs to withstand.
Check the proposed roll in the wrapper without improvising an adapter or using unsupported settings. Review the machine instructions and supplied film guidance together. Inspect the first completed bales before approving the roll for routine use.
Ask for the relevant product instructions covering storage, wrapping and repair. Record any conditions attached to the chosen grade. Do not infer suitability for your location or storage period from film colour or another farm’s wrapping practice.
Confirm your specification
Specify width, thickness, roll length or net material weight, core size, colour, packing, quantity and destination. Final dimensions and performance are confirmed by the sample and order.
