AGRI SIALGE WRAP USEAGE INSTRUCTION

PRODUCT CARE – FILM ROLLS

· Rolls should be stored on their ends under cover and protected from extreme temperatures & sunlight (15-20 deg C storage is ideal)

· Take particular care with the edges of rolled film – product should be stored in carton provided. 

PRODUCT CARE – WRAPPED BALES

· Wrapped bales should only be handled with purpose-build equipment to avoid damage to the film.  Handling should be kept to a minimum. 

· Film will not degrade due to Ultra Violet rays for up to 12 months from date of exposure.  Wrapped bales should be used within 12 months.

· Bales should be stored away from sharp objects and fenced to prevent livestock access.  Additional protection may be required against rodents and birds. A well drained level site is ideal. 

· Bales can be stacked 1-3 high depending on Dry Matter(DM) content and bale density  ie: single layered if low DM or poor density. 

· Bales should be regularly checked and any damage repaired quickly using UV adhesive patches.

· Some chemicals accelerate film degradation including herbicides, fertilizers, mineral oils and impregnated sisal twine.  These substances should not come into contact with the bale wrap film.
