Pallet strapping is a process of securing products or goods to a pallet using a strap or band made of polypropylene, polyester, or steel. 

Pallet strapping is commonly used in transportation and storage industries to secure goods on pallets during transportation and storage. It helps to prevent damage to the products or goods, and also ensures that they do not shift or move during transport.
