Shrink Films
01 Overview
SEALED AIR® brand shrink films are strong and durable.
SEALED AIR® brand and CRYOVAC® brand shrink films wrap a wide range of product shapes, weights, and sizes, from large consumer goods, to oddly shaped and smaller “pick and pack” parcels. With enhanced seal strength and durability, our films perform better than significantly thicker competitive materials. Keep your products safe during storage and handling while reducing raw materials and energy consumed in the manufacturing process.
- Durability and tensile strength provide product protection during distribution and in-store handling
- Film weight reduction significantly saves on raw materials and energy during manufacturing
- Longer rolls result in fewer changeovers and less roll handling, increased equipment uptime, and improved labour utilisation
- Our recycle-ready* shrink films have a RIC4 designation
*Degree of recyclability will vary depending on scope and availability of collection, sortation and recycling programmes.
