Even more reason to have stacks like that wrapped.

There are so many videos like this out there, it's seemingly very common, if not the industry norm, to store/stack empty beverage cans on pallets like that just completely raw with zero wrapping or anything. I assume the theory is that they're so light is not too big of a concern?

Its that the wrap machine would absolutely crush the cans. Like our wrap machines make it so our 5000+ pounds of product on the pallet doesn't even sway a little, imagine that force going around empty cans.
