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

Yes, you are right about the pallet wraps.
Costco still sells PVC food cling wrap.
