Founded in 1972, at the peak of an energy crisis, Lantech made an impact on the world by inventing stretch wrapping and sparking a packaging revolution that spread around the globe and changed the way pallets of products are unitized for shipment. Now, billions of pallet loads are stretch wrapped every year. Our passion to do things better, faster, safer and at lower costs led to a culture of innovation and generated 277 patented inventions to date that create enormous value for our customers by eliminating waste from their supply chains. Today, we build case handling machines in the Netherlands and stretch wrapping machines in the United States. We have sales and technical support offices in North America, Europe, Australia, and China as well as a global network of independent distributors, integrators and service technicians. Where our customers are, we are. Our revolutionary fervor is unchanged. Our mission is simple: to reduce or eliminate the huge amount of shipping damage that occurs as products make their way from their point of manufacture to their destination.
