Shrink Wrapping

A common packaging method that protects many types of product.

Get Started

How shrink wrapping works

The product goes into a heat-sensitive poly bag or is wrapped in heat-sensitive film, and the package is sealed. A conveyor carries it through a heat tunnel, where the film or bag shrinks to fit the product.

The result is a protective, tamper-evident covering, well suited to technology, electronics, games and paper products.

About the film

Shrink wrap is made from PVC, polyolefin or polyethylene. Thickness is measured in gauge, and a higher number means thicker film.

Common applications

Booklets, gadgets, printed items, tools, parts, bottles, labels, air fresheners, animal toys, batteries, beauty supplies, frozen items, kits, frames, calendars, auto parts and more.

Benefits

  • Relatively inexpensive protection, especially during shipping
  • Prevents tampering and lid removal
  • Protects against moisture and dust
  • Stays transparent so the product remains visible

High volume or small runs

Shrink wrap bundles multiple items for promotional, office supply, wholesale and retail products. Our process handles large and small runs cost-effectively without sacrificing quality.
