Stretch Film Cost per Pallet Calculator
Weigh representative actual qualified wrap cycles. Include tails and rewraps in the measurement. Measured consumption avoids guessing savings from nominal prestretch or thickness.

First time using this calculator?
Replace the example values with figures from your supplier sheet or measurements. Choose the unit beside each value. Results update as you type; fix any highlighted field before using the result.
GSM means grams per square metre. Net weight excludes the core and other packaging. MOQ means the minimum order quantity. An optional field can stay blank unless the result you need depends on it.
Prices keep the selected currency; changing its label does not convert an exchange rate. Save or export the result after checking your inputs.
Help with measured net film per load
Use material weight only. Subtract the core, pallet and outer wrapping from a gross shipment or roll weight. Find the net value on the supplier sheet or weigh it separately.
Help with film price per kg
Use the price for one kilogram of the quoted material, excluding freight unless the quote explicitly combines them.
Label only; no exchange-rate conversion.
Measured film cost per pallet
Film cost/pallet = Measured grams ÷ 1,000 × Price/kg
grams = 300; price = 2.4 → Measured film cost per pallet = 0.72 currency/palletSaved calculations stay in this browser. No account or cloud backup is created.

The formula, made clear.
Weigh representative actual qualified wrap cycles. Include tails and rewraps in the measurement. Measured consumption avoids guessing savings from nominal prestretch or thickness.
How to use this calculator
- 01
Confirm measured net film per load, film price per kg.
- 02
Enter consistent units; zero means a confirmed absence of a charge or allowance.
- 03
Review the arithmetic, rounding and limitations before using the result in a purchasing decision.

Use measured GSM, net weight and actual layout dimensions where available. Default densities are planning assumptions, not certified material properties. Calculated cost does not certify strength, compatibility or safe loading.
