Shrink wrap is applied over or around package products. Depending on the application, the film may or may not entirely cover the packaged item. As a result, shrink film is used to stabilize items or group products.

Shrink film keeps products free of debris, and provides a tamper-resistance barrier. Sometimes, it’s even the primary covering for foods such as meats, and vegetables.

For high volume packaging, shrink wrapping machine are used to automate this process. When heat is applied to the shrink film via a shrink tunnel, the film shrinks and tightly conforms to the shape that it’s covering. Shrink wrappers will also wrap, cut and seal the shrink film automatically.
