An Investment for Once and for All on Leather Jackets

Let winter be a style season and spring its descendent. Make a change in regular attire with the most unrivaled dressing statement while warding off the harsh winter coldness. Men’s and women’s leather jackets are easy luxury adornments that make a difficult winter easy.  Though they might seem to appear a thin shield for being a weather protector, yet, real leather always does the work of cushioning one by maintaining a higher insulation index.

When it comes to purchasing leather jackets, leather’s authenticity pulls out from achieving the gain due to its immense pricing tag. On the other hand, faux leather, a lookalike of the category reflecting a similar appearance, having structured fitting, casting smooth and polished texture, etc., snap up the deal since it is tagged with a lesser price. Its value is something diminished to almost half the price of premium leather. Nonetheless, it is worth mentioning that, besides better pricing, investing in synthetic leather leaves certain chronic consequences surrounding the wearer’s health and investment.

As such, a recommendation for real leather jackets always counsels buyers even if it is a matter of heavy investment. And so, one should rather put some money onto premium leather and stay assured of its one-time asset badge. Below are a few illustrations describing the perks of making a strong investment in men’s and womens jackets or also cited as leather jackets.

Lambskin leather is available in various grades with full-grain and semi-grain being the most esteemed of all. They pinnacle the durability index with the rating being appreciably high. However, full-grained lamb leather is way tougher and accounts for enduring outerwear. Lifespan ranges from a few years to generations. Leather is resilient to wear and tear unless jeopardized by critical exposure. With minimal yet easy upkeep, one can enjoy its everlasting companion on every frigid winter. Being durable also means furnishing leather coats a gateway for resale when it is no longer a requisite. Since its flourishing appeal remains good as new, it can be set up for auction. On contrary to this, inferior faux leather, on completion of a finite period starts to wither and shows unsightly cracks and peeling of synthetics.

In context to functionality, the effectiveness of real leather is notable. It copes well single-handedly or makes a quality integration when paired up with any underlying warm layer. Most leather jackets are tailored with an internal satin lining. Superior satin esteems its silky smoothness and renders luxury. Irrespective of quilted or uniform design, Satin always leaves a posh impression. Additionally, it also aids in warmth preservation and insulation maintenance. However, customizing leather coats with animal fur significantly adds to the opulence. In case of extreme chilly weather, dense natural fox fur or voluminous raccoon fur majorly contributes to the heat trap. Hence, collars and hoods of jackets and long coats are detailed with fur trim to keep the most sensitive body part cold-resistant.  Sometimes, even the pocket border and the internal are layered with fur trim for promoting snugness.

Rest, leather from tanned raw hides of lambskin is a natural resource and so is degradable. Most eco-friendly outerwear causes no distress to human skin or discomfort by any other means. Thus, women’s and mens leather fur coats are a wise winter choice.

Often, leather, during the tanning process is treated waterproof and so the conditioned piece upholds its charming appeal even on being wet. Hence, there arises no cause for worry in the context of exposed leather outerwear to rain. So, leather jackets are waterproof and keep the wearer warm and safe.

In regards to fashion statements, the widely recognized variances of designs such as leather parkas, trench coats, leather vests, and crop jackets, all earn enticing grandeur. Wearing a trendy leather jacket is considered to give off the posh, iconic style right away. In many ways, they also represent masculinity. While leather is itself strong and long-lasting, the wearer embodies these attributes. Partial or full aniline finishing accounts for a regal touch to the outerwear.  Lustrous sheen is guaranteed timeless attributable to the supreme quality finish.

Aside from the benefits already mentioned, the most pleasing aspect of leather jackets is that they go with virtually any type of clothes proving their versatility. The jacket can be used to layer different ensembles in any season because it isn't limited to a few basic items. Stormy summers can be well accompanied by vests or moto jackets. For regions with a mild summer temperature, a thin leather bomber jacket will be suitable for layering regular t-shirts and jeans. Otherwise, the spring, fall, and winter seasons are when most people wear biker or fur-lined jackets or even double breast long coats. Parkas, however, is a staple for freezing weather. 

Putting it all up, women’s and mens fur leather coats form a standardized attire for casual settings, semi-formal occasions, and official convocations owing to their decent designing aspect. Furthermore, the wearer can benefit from the ultra glamour and splendor of the long coats and leather trenches worn at royal parties. Their practical effectiveness is highlighted by biker jackets and pilot bombers. The leather product line becomes a worthwhile investment as the utilization per outfit increases.

Sunscreen Recommendations Summary

Sunscreen is the product I use the most on a daily basis, even more than skincare products. I always apply sunscreen even if I don't go out. It's really essential and can prevent skin aging and sunburn. Today, I want to share some of the sunscreens I have used that I think are good and non-drying. Let's take a rational look!

[For those who seek cost-effectiveness]

Lancome Blanc Expert UV Shield

The texture of this sunscreen is really lightweight! I have recommended it many times recently. It doesn't feel greasy when applied, but it is very moisturizing. It also makes the makeup application very smooth. The cost-effectiveness is also good!

Addiction UV Protector

This sunscreen is very transparent when applied, almost like a layer of water film. It forms a film quickly but does not have a brightening effect. It is suitable for summer.

Clé de Peau Beauté UV Protective Cream

This sunscreen has received mixed reviews, but I really think it is very easy to use. The lotion texture is moisturizing and easy to apply. The makeup application after using it is also very smooth.

IPSA Sunscreen

This sunscreen is also very refreshing and does not burden the skin when applied. The makeup application afterwards does not cake, but dry skin and it can only love each other in summer. It can be a bit drying in autumn and winter.

AMPLEUR Sunscreen

The texture of this sunscreen is very light and thin, and it is also watery when applied. It forms a film quickly and does not leave a white cast. For me, it is just right for summer, but it can be a bit drying in autumn and winter.

[Mid-range price]

Dior UV Protector

The texture of this sunscreen is moisturizing and has a tinted effect. It is quite moisturizing and has a slight powdery feeling. It can lightly brighten the skin tone, which looks very natural.

YSL UV Protector

This sunscreen has no tinted effect and is purely transparent. After applying it, there may be a slight oily film feeling on the skin, but it is acceptable to save time when applying makeup. It is waterproof and sweat-proof and does not need to be reapplied frequently.

Helena Rubinstein UV Protector with Highlighter

This product is similar to YSL, but it is even lighter and thinner in texture. Its fluidity is good like a serum, and after absorption, there is a thin layer of oil film that is not too heavy.

3Lab Perfect Sunscreen

This sunscreen has a cream texture, which is moisturizing but very light and thin. The makeup applied afterwards is smooth and not drying.

Armani UV Protector

The texture of this sunscreen is very moisturizing, and it can also correct the skin tone. I feel that it is even better than Shiseido.

[For those who pursue high-end skincare]

Cle de Peau Beaute UV Protection Cream

I really like this sunscreen! Especially in winter, it saves all the peeling and cakey issues! It is very suitable for desert-dry skin.

Lancome Absolue UV Precious Cells

The pale pink lotion texture has a slightly brightening effect on the skin tone. It is very smooth and moisturizing when applied, and it is suitable for dry skin.

Yves Saint Laurent Le Teint Encre de Peau Fusion Ink Foundation SPF18

This sunscreen has a watery texture like a serum, which is very comfortable when applied. It can be used after a hydrating lotion, and the makeup applied afterwards is very smooth.

Morkoth

Image by Christopher Burdett, © Wizards of the Coast. Accessed at the artist’s blog here

[The morkoth is one of those monsters that has been around since the First Edition Monster Manual, but got very little fleshing out until 5e. In previous editions, there was no origin or explanation of the morkoth except “it eats people”, when it’s a very strange monster with a very particular MO. So the fact that Volo’s Guide to Monsters gives it an actual backstory, and ways to build a whole adventure around it, is very heartening.

If you’re not a fan of the 5e version of the morkoth, but want to use something closer to the original in your games, @thecreaturechronicle​ has a version here. It borrows the look and backstory from a @bogleech​ article, but its power level is much more like the 1e version.]

Morkoth CR 11 CE Aberration This grotesque creature looks like a hybrid of various marine life, with a prominent beak set in a leering, fishy face. Several small clawed hands protrude over its array of tentacles, and an array of detritus, ranging from gleaming treasures to broken junk, cover its mantle like a protective shell.

Morkoths are peripatetic collectors, who roam the planets and planes searching for the one thing that will fulfill their eternal emptiness. The first morkoths were created upon the death of a god of greed and strife, whose corpse was cast into the Astral Plane and fragmented into nacreous shards. Each of these shards served as the nucleus for a magical island, and the morkoths were created to be their stewards and protectors. Some scholars believe that what morkoths are truly searching for is a means to restore a god to life and therefore resurrect their progenitor.

A morkoth island can be found practically anywhere, from floating in the sky to the bottom of the ocean, even in the most hostile of the planes. These islands are typically warm, wet and tropical in character, even if surrounded by frozen wastelands. The morkoth itself lives in a network of flooded tunnels beneath the island, where it obsesses over its ever-increasing horde. Morkoths collect lives as readily as they do inanimate objects, and so a morkoth’s island may be home to rare or extinct species, members of lost cultures or experts in obscure fields. Some of these are kept in place through magical means, but over the ages some tribes know of no other home, and may worship the morkoth as a god or protective spirit.

A morkoth is a predator, and hunts through ambush. They can cloud the minds of creatures and force them to walk straight into the morkoth’s lair and offer themselves as a meal—some creatures so affected do not even blink as the morkoth eats them alive. If they meet with resistance, morkoths prefer to use their magical powers to fight rather than scrap in melee. All morkoths are wizards of some skill, although they often have less of a single spellbook and more of a hoarder’s pile of notes, engravings and scrolls, typically waterproofed and kept in airy pockets for safekeeping.

Morkoths can theoretically be negotiated with, trading one object or life for another. The prices they demand are high, and few morkoths would hesitate to betray a deal if they find something else that they want. Some morkoths are specialists and have very particular treasures that they prefer, whereas others simply want as much as possible, as soon as possible. A morkoth cannot die except through violence, so some of them have access to items that are very old indeed. How morkoths reproduce, if they can reproduce, is unknown.

SQ amphibious, demesne, planar acclimation Ecology Environment any Organization solitary Treasure triple standard Special Abilities Debris Armor (Ex) A morkoth’s collection of junk gives it a +4 armor bonus to its AC without an armor check penalty, maximum Dexterity bonus or spell failure chance. Demesne (Su) A morkoth lairs on a supernatural island 1 square mile or less in area. On this island, the morkoth can use clairaudience/clairvoyance at any distance. The morkoth may create up to six tunnels, each up to 120 feet long, which radiate its hypnosis ability to all creatures that pass within 20 feet of the entrance so long as the morkoth is within 120 feet of that tunnel entrance.  The island is protected from any harmful effects of the plane it is on. The morkoth can transport the entire island, and all creatures and object on it, as per a greater teleport or plane shift effect by concentrating for 1 hour. Any unwilling creatures may resist this ability with a DC 21 Will save—if they succeed, they are left behind when the island moves (which may have harmful consequences in itself). The save DC is Charisma based. Hypnosis (Su) As a standard action, a morkoth may project mental energy in a 30 foot cone. All creatures caught in that cone must succeed a DC 21 Will save or move towards the morkoth. When they are adjacent to it, they can take no actions and do not resist its attacks (treat as dazed). A creature that is attacked by a morkoth when hypnotized may attempt an additional Will save to break the effect; otherwise it remains passive. This effect lasts for 10 minutes or until a save is made. A creature that successfully saves against this ability is immune to that morkoth’s hypnosis for the next 24 hours. This is a mind-influencing compulsion effect, and the save DC is Charisma based. Planar Acclimation (Ex) A morkoth is never treated as having the extraplanar subtype. Reflect Magic (Su) Any spell that fails to overcome a morkoth’s spell resistance affects the caster of that spell as if they were its original target or was in the spell’s area. A successful dispel magic made against a DC equal to the morkoth’s spell resistance suppresses this ability for 1d4+1 rounds. Spells A morkoth casts spells as if it were an 11th level wizard. It does not gain the benefits of a school specialization, or any of the other abilities of the wizard class, unless it takes wizard levels.

Once Bitten, Twice Stupid prt.56

Lance had cleaned through his house twice, slightly panicked after Keith had called to say Coran was coming to speak to him in person. As far as he knew, he hadn’t done anything wrong. He’d kept his scheduled checkin calls with Coran, even secretly keeping a journal of his moods as Coran had asked. Sure, Coran sometimes came out for no reason other to than “to take a break from Platt”, he wasn’t stupid enough to believe that it wasn’t Coran checking in on him. So now that Coran was coming for some other reason, he’d cleaned every surface he could think of, changed the cat litter, cleaned up Kosmo’s morning puddle, baked a fresh tray of chocolate chip cookies, and had a small breakdown, all before 9am. Keith had said it was related to the feeling he had in the tunnels and that Coran would explain it all. His boyfriend doing a bang up job of making him worry instead of relieved to hear Keith’s voice. Curtis hadn’t been much company on the drive back, Lance suspected it was because he’d arranged to meet at Shiro at VOLTRON, only for his plans to fall through. It was kind of Hunk and Shay all over again, except Curtis was kind of half cursed and Shiro was... Shiro. The man had more moods than his phone had settings. If Shiro felt it was finally time to move on from Adam, then Lance would do everything he could to help the pair of them. He liked Curtis. He liked having someone else to talk to, even if all their conversations were slightly weird. Not that he’d ever replace Hunk or Pidge. Hunk just had other priorities now he and Shay were figuring things out, and Pidge was worried about him too much as it was. She didn’t always let it show, awkward about those kind of things. But she was more family than Luis and Veronica at this point.

Thinking of his siblings only added to his stress. Veronica and Luis had gotten into a small fight over him, with Veronica actually taking his side. If he’d wanted to hurt their Mami, he easily could have a hundred times over by now and she was sick of Luis being a busy body. It’d been years since he’d seen his sister and her two girls. But age had been kind to Veronica, barely a free hair visible. For a second Lance had wondered if she’d been turned, she was exactly how he last remembered her. Upset of his impromptu cleaning, Kosmo pawed at his leg. With no idea when to stop filling his face, his food now lived up on the bench with Blue’s. His precious daughter didn’t love having a brother, but he’d caught them snuggled together. Sure, Blue’s tail had been wagging and her expression one of “what the fuck is this thing?”, but gradually Kosmo was worming his way into her heart.

Picking up Kosmo, the puppy wagged his tail happily. He really didn’t like being alone. The first night Lance had tried to have him in his own doggy bed since Keith left, Kosmo had cried for hours, so Lance had moved him up to his bed. Waking to find a very large wet spot thanks to puppy pee. Thankfully he already had a waterproof mattress protector on his bed, thanks to his heats it was kind of necessity. Kissing Kosmo on the head, the puppy tried licking at his face, Lance tucking him up against him as he went about making tea to go with the cookies. He didn’t know why Coran couldn’t just call him. This waiting thing sucked. He wasn’t good at it. Not when it came to people he cared about.

Matt and Rieva were sent to clean up when they finally crawled out of bed. Matt grumbling over Lance disturbing their sleep. Flashing his teeth, his housemate backed off, Lance throwing his dramatic arse into the closet seat. He shouldn’t be freaking out. Coran had known him for years. He liked to think they’d long passed awkward house visits, but he was on edge as it was. He wanted to hurry up and be done with the tunnels, so Pidge could be excited about something else.

It was 10 o’clock when Shiro’s white sedan finally pulled up in front of his house. Rushing to the front door, he found Coran enthusiastically praising Shiro’s driving. Bounding past his feet, Kosmo klutzed up and fell down the front veranda steps with excitement, picking himself back up, his whole body was wagging as his little body bounded towards Shiro. Scooping up the excitable pup, Shiro was lucky he held Kosmo away from him as the puppy peed in excitement. Shiro grimacing, waiting until Kosmo was done before handing him off to Keith. Keith didn’t care about the pee as he cradled his fur son, smiling as Kosmo licked at every part of him that he could

“Hello, baby. I missed up”

Resisting the urge to gush over his boyfriend was easy when he felt sick to stomach over Coran. Coran’s enthusiasm turning to gushing over the puppy. If Coran was this cheerful then Lance was overreacting

“Hey, guys. Come on in”

Causal. He hoped he sounded casual. Shiro started towards the house, Coran and Keith much slower as they fussed over Kosmo

“Hey, Lance. How’s things?”

“Good. I’ve got fresh cookies and tea waiting”

Coran shot him a smile, yet Lance knew his attention was still focused on Kosmo

“Excellent, my boy. Sorry for the unplanned visit”

“It’s fine. Keith called ahead”

Keith paused on the front steps to kiss his cheek. Lance kind of disappointed it wasn’t a proper kiss, but happy he was there for whatever reason. Heading indoors, Lance led the group through the kitchen. Matt and Rieva had already started on the cookies, but seeing he’d made four dozen, there were still plenty left to go around. Sitting in his usual seat, he left his lap open for Keith, Keith instead sitting next to him. Coran being Coran went straight to pouring tea for everyone, as Shiro sat himself down at the opposite end of the table and next to Curtis.

When the tea was ready, Coran started passing out the cups

“I expect you’re somewhat confused what I’m doing here”

“A bit. I mean, it hasn’t been that long since I saw you”

“I know. I wouldn’t have come, but Keith mentioned you were heading back into the tunnels beneath Garrison and you had a negative reaction the first time”

Lance squirmed. Negative was putting it nicely. And Coran coming out over the tunnels seemed overly weird

“I told you about them before”

He had. He didn’t get why Coran was making a fuss now. Maybe he’d found something?

“That you did, but I’m afraid I have a bit of bad news. I thought perhaps offering assistance on this would help ease what I have to say”

“You know I hate it when you word it like that”

Coran set a cup of tea before him. Lance taking the cup in his hands to give himself something to focus on

“I do. There’s... a bit of an issue at headquarters. You know we service all vampires in the area. We have a new vampire in Platt. I don’t believe he’d be interested in you, yet it has been many years since I last saw him”

Lance couldn’t help the laughter that came from relief. The rest of the table staring at him like he was crazy

“You had me worried! If you want me to keep my distance you could have told me on the phone”

It wasn’t that funny. His laughter dying away within a few moments. He felt so much lighter for knowing, even if it did compound the fact he’d stupidly overreacted

“I know. I wanted to tell you seeing how things have been lately. It seems he may have picked up your scent. I’m quite confident he has no idea who you are, only that you’re quite unusual”

Lance sobered. That was one way of putting it. The other was saying he was basically catnip to vampires, which he was

“I get it. You told me I was going to have to live more carefully than ever before”

“I’m so glad you understand. I must admit I didn’t sleep well last night. I care quite a lot for you, my boy”

Lance nodded

“I know. You’re not being mean, you’re trying to protect me. It’s fine. Now, why are you asking about the tunnels”

Coran sat himself down beside Keith, nursing his cup of tea near his chest

“I’m concerned you may be more in-tune with death than ever. Can you describe what you felt?”

Lance sighed. He didn’t need to see ghosts any clearer than he already did... or didn’t

“Revolting. Like someone had filled the whole place with residue of death, and like... like I had confess all my sins. I wasn’t feeling that great before we headed in, but I definitely started feeling better again above ground”

Coran hummed, Matt stopping munching long enough to ask

“Should we be worried? I know Lance was in the mine shaft tunnels, but if he’s feeling ill from the town ones, does that mean something’s down there that could hurt Pidge?”

“I’m not sure. A creature down there for that long would have long gone mad. I felt it best I give it a quick check, before you and your friends make the trip down”

Coran must have really been on edge thanks to this new vampire. He didn’t need to come make the precheck on Lance’s activities, still, he had. Lance wondered if Coran was feeling overly cautious and fearful for his safety because he knew this new vampire was bad news, or if it was related to him being a breeder and the vampire being new to town

“It didn’t feel like something living. There was much pain and regret. It was like... I don’t know. I wanted to go church the moment I came back up again”

Lance closed his eyes, trying to block the feelings of the tunnels rising inside him

“That concerns me. Let’s enjoy our spot of tea and be in our way over”

*

Lance drove Keith, Matt, and Rieva to the pub. Matt was excited over seeing the tunnels ahead of the weekend, Rieva annoyed their morning had been interrupted by something so trivial, and Keith kept casting him sideways glances because Lance has suggested maybe he and Shiro stay home at the last moment. Lance unable to share any enthusiasm Matt had. He’d been left cold and clammy at the mere thought. Pulling into the first parking back closest to the pub, he most definitely didn’t want to go in there.

Keith and Lance hung back as the group, now led by Coran, headed into the pub. Brushing shoulders was the most intimate they could be, but Lance was struggling not to hold Keith’s hand

“Babe?”

Of course Keith wanted to talk

“I’m fine... I’m a bit edgy”

“I can see that. If you don’t want to go down there, Coran will understand”

To have the luxury not to go would be nice

“No. I have to. Coran could be in danger, plus he probably wants to observe the effects of the tunnel”

“If everything goes smoothly, why don’t we have lunch here? We can send the others back ahead to your place”

“That’d be nice, but I don’t think I’ll be much company”

“I don’t mind. Or we could leave them here and head back to yours”

“Mmm. That sounds better. No offence”

“None taken. I’m sorry I freaked you out”

“Some warning would have been nice, but it is what it is. I really don’t want to do this. I was still psyching myself up for the weekend”

“I would have come, if I could have”

Lance felt a tiny bit better about that. He wanted to head home and cuddle with Keith, not be forced to adult

“I know. Can you answer something for me. Is Coran worried because I’m a breeder or is this new vampire dangerous. I totally get if you can’t and all...”

“He’s up to something. He used to be friends with Allura”

“The fact he used to be friends isn’t making me feel better. Allura is practically one of the nicest people I know”

“I can’t say much... but I don’t like him”

That was so Keith. His boyfriend had walls a mile thick. Not quick to trust but when he did, he was the kind of man who’d do anything for the people he cared about

“Okay. I’m sorry for asking about work”

“It’s fine if it’s you. We better join the others”

Coran was already talking to the publican. The poor man opened at 10:30 and now they were ruining his day already. He didn’t seem happy to see Keith and Lance, not that Lance could blame him. Pidge could be a tyrant at negotiating for what she wanted, and he had a business to run. The man didn’t have time to deal with paranormal investigators.

Coran pulled some kind of Jedi mind trick, getting them access without fighting or yelling. As they headed downstairs, Lance’s hand slipped into Keith’s, Keith squeezing firmly

“It’s okay, babe. I’m right here. A quick in and out and then we’ll be headed home”

Leaning into his boyfriend, Keith nuzzled into him, kissing the spot on his hairline . Lance wishing the kiss was enough to force the sick feeling from his body. It was already taking everything he had no to throw up on his feet. Talk about psychosomatic symptoms right there

“Yeah. I know... I hope Coran lets you stay the afternoon”

Keith probably had to go straight back to work. Lance didn’t want to interrupt him working, but he was pathetically addicted to Keith’s cuddles

“So do I... but we probably have to go back to work. We’re in the middle of investigating this shitty club”

“Let me guess, it’s shitty because you can’t drink?”

“That’s part of it. There were pets”

Lance wrinkled his nose. Keith was probably more used to seeing pets than he was, but that didn’t make it any more tasteful. The thought of collaring Keith stroked his ego, as much as it hurt his heart to think of a caged Keith. Keith with his freedom and sense of self worth was the Keith he wanted. Obedient Keith would be too freaking weird... Nope. He wanted his anger loaf as his partner not his pet

“If I ever make you feel like I pet, I hope you punch me in the dick for it”

“I will. You ready?”

“As ready as I’ll never be”

Letting them through to tunnels, Lance felt ill immediately, covering his mouth with his hand as Coran examined ahead. Shiro was using the light of his phone to guide him, Curtis and Keith. Following Coran for a good 5 minutes of torturous silence, Coran finally came to a stop

“How do you feel?”

Like there was an itch under his skin and he really shouldn’t be there. Like whatever lingered wanted him gone

“Not great”

“I’m going to try something. Let me know if you can see it”

Coran placed his hand on the wall, blue lines radiated outwards like spiderwebs. Lance reasoned in awe that this had to be what magic looked like. Coran trigging it with his own. The feeling of death now so heavily pushing against him that his shoulders hunched. His head felt ready to split in two, as his fangs lengthened. Behind him, Shiro started to call out as a savage snarl filled the space, half turning, he found himself eyeing Matt, who Rieva was trying to hold back both her boyfriend and her own transformation, her eyes already yellowing as wrapped her arms around Matt in a losing battle

“Keith, look out!”

Acting on instinct, Lance shoved Keith aside, his body acting as shield for Coran. Sharps claws tore through his jacket and shirt like a knife through warm butter. Screaming in pain, Matt’s teeth sank deeply into his shoulder, his weight driving Lance to his knees as something snapped. Blood filled the air, Lance fighting to stay conscious

“Get out of here! Move, now!”

Grabbing Keith by the arm, Coran pulled him to stand behind him. Shiro already helping Curtis towards the way out. Falling under Matt, Lance twisted, driving his hand up to smack under the wolf’s jaw. His right arm looked nasty, the blow only stopping Matt for a moment before his claws were tearing into Lance’s chest. Coran was saying something, saying something then grabbing Matt around the neck. When Matt went to snap at Coran, Lance’s left arm round its way into Matt’s mouth by accident as he was trying to grab the wolf by his bottom jaw. For a moment, Matt’s eyes glowed yellow, before his wolf form was slumping over Lance. Everything was happening too fast. Lance couldn’t keep up. Dimly he heard Keith calling his name, followed by a voice he definitely didn’t want to hear... then there was nothing.

Benefits of Pallet Wrapping: Securing Loads

The number of worldwide shipments has seen a drastic increase in recent times all thanks to the power of the internet. But what has also been used more than ever before is palletising. Also known as pallet wrapping is a practice where numerous items are placed on a pallet and secured with what is known as pallet wrap film.

Palletising items ensures not only the placement of the items but also keeps them protected from external factors. You may not keep items safe from heavy impacts but you will at least keep them dry and clean when using pallet wrap film. By pallet wrapping loads you also help improve inventory control. But how does the material used for palletising ensure proper load containment?

Pallet Wrap

What is It?

This plastic stretchable film is made from LLDPE. Pallet wrapping film is commonly see-through so that the items on the pallet are easier to identify. You can also find quality pallet wrap products that come with subtle colours to them or ones that are fully opaque.

Benefits

Because of its core ingredient, wrap stretch film is extremely durable and waterproof for its weight. In fact, wrap film is one of the lightest products you can use for load containment. It comes in different thicknesses, stretch levels, as well as sizes so that you can provide proper load containment for any pallet no matter the shape and size of the load. This level of versatility also transcends into the use of various pallet wrap film products.

Types of Pallet Wrap

Cast

Manufactured thanks to an extrusion process, a cast stretch wrap is best known for its clarity and ease of use. You can clearly see what the material is keeping in place and you don't need to use a lot of force to apply this type of product. Cast stretch film is quite affordable and it doesn't make a lot of noise when unwrapping items. Keep in mind though, that cast stretch wrap is not able to hold a lot of items, especially not heavy ones.

Blown

With blown stretch wrap you can wrap more items as well as heavier ones than you could with cast stretch wrap. Blown stretch film also has a higher tear resistance which is beneficial when you want to secure items with sharp corners. This is because blown stretch wrap is made by extruding the melted plastic through an annular slit die.

This is done in a vertical manner which helps form a thin wallet tube. Then, air is introduced through an opening in the centre of the die which blows up the film tube just like you would a balloon. There is an air ring on top of the film tube that blows onto the film in order to cool it down and thus solidify it.

Light-Duty

This is a general-purpose pallet stretch wrap that has a low thickness level. This makes light-duty pallet wrap film ideal for palletising well-stacked loads that are made up of similarly shaped boxes.

Medium-Duty

A little bit more robust than light-duty pallet stretch wrap film, medium-duty stretch wrap is usable with loads that are made up of some irregularly shaped boxes. These usually include poster boxes.

Heavy-Duty

If you want to be able to palletise any load no matter the shape of the boxes or sharp edges, go with heavy-duty stretch wrap. This is an extremely robust stretch wrap that can handle boxes with edge guards as well as corner protectors.

How to Use Pallet Wrap

Stack

Proper load containment starts from the arrangement of the items you want to palletise. Make sure to stack your goods so that they aren't sticking out. Just like playing a game of Tetris, try to go for as uniform of a shape as possible.

Make sure there are no gaps between items, and if you can't seem to avoid that you should use anti-slip layer sheets to prevent any movement. If the items move a lot they can end up compromising the wrap. Larger and heavier items should be at the bottom while smaller and lighter items should be more at the top or middle.

Attach

Once you've found the right type of pallet wrap, peel a little bit off the roll and squeeze about 20 cm of the wrap in the shape of a loose rope. This “rope” will need to be threaded through and around a corner of the pallet. This way you will secure the wrap to the pallet and make for a more stable load containment.

Wrap

Next, start wrapping the film around the load from the base. Make sure to keep a consistent stretch of the film while going around the load. This will make for stable and secure placpallet stretch wrapement of the film and thus prevent items from moving or falling off. You should wrap around the base of the pallet at least 4 times.

Once the base is covered, make your way up slowly so that every layer overlaps the one before it. When you reach the top of the load, start making your way down to the base so that you make the load more secure. This is not a must but you should do it if the load needs to be more stable.

Secure & Test

When you're done wrapping the load the second time around make sure to stick the end of the wrap to the pallet or you can also tuck it under one of its edges. This way you add a second layer of security.

To make sure everything is stable and safely in place, make sure to test the load by pushing the upper portion. If the load doesn't feel loose then you have nothing to worry about.

What are the applications of PTFE Products?

Because it is a high molecular weight polymer made completely of carbon and fluorine, PTFE is a fluorocarbon (solid-state) at room temperature. The nonstick coating on pans and other equipment is made of PTFE. It is commonly used in containers and piping for reactive and corrosive chemicals because of the strength of the carbon-fluorine bonds. When used as a lubricant, PTFE minimises friction, wear, and energy consumption in equipment. It's widely utilized in surgical treatments as a graft material. It's also commonly used as a catheter coating to keep bacteria and other infectious agents from sticking to catheters and triggering hospital-acquired infections.
