I believe PVC is being phased out/ has phased out in Saran Wrap production

Not for the stuff that wraps pallets. I also think not yet in food service, but not sure if that is ongoing or not.

pallet wrap is polyethylene- "stretch wrap"

wrap that comes over, say, a 6 pack of bottles or a 12 pack of boxes is polyethylene- "shrink wrap"

wrap that comes on a roll at costco to put over food is saran wrap. it used to be PVC but is transitioning to polyethylene because PVC is now considered unacceptable for food contact
