Shrink wrap (also referred to as shrink film or shrink wrap) is a versatile polymer material used for the packaging of finished goods. Heat is applied to the film – by either a conveyor heat tunnel or an electric or gas heat gun – which catalyzes the film to shrink tightly around the item placed within. This process results in a clear, durable barrier of protection around the product.
Shrink wrap film is available in a variety of types, thicknesses, clarities, strengths, and shrink ratios, which can be employed alone or in conjunction with one another to create the precise type of layering and protection for your product. These options and constructions have broadened over time to accommodate specific requirements for sealability, optics, toughness, slip, temperature, force, and memory.
