This way, you will quickly realize the problem when you tamper with the pallet.
Branding
The color of a brand’s logo is a powerful branding element. Many consumers can identify their favorite brands simply by the color used in their branding materials. Depending on the color associated with your brand, you may be able to use a color from your logo as the color of the stretch wrap used to wrap your pallets. For example, if your brand logo is orange, you can use orange stretch wrap to wrap your pallets.
