Shrink Wrapping Machines Reseller

At AmerEquip, we buy and sell different types of shrink wrapping machines from the best and most trusted manufacturers. Shrink wrap is simply a type of film that holds things together and protects them from dust and weathering. You can wrap it around nearly anything. And once it is wrapped, you can heat it to create a tight-fitting, self-sealed package. Shrink wrapping is also commonly used to bundle small items together in order to protect big stuff like dry-docked boats.

However, shrink wrap is not the same as stretch wrap, which is a common misconception. Stretch wrap is an elastic film that stretched tightly around a load and is frequently used to wrap pallets for shipping. Shrink wrap is applied loosely and then will shrink tightly when you apply some heat. Shrink wrap is the perfect material to use to wrap individual products or bundles of products for sale.

Ways to Apply Shrink Wrap

There are a few different ways to apply shrink wrap. Those ways include:

  • Put smaller items in a shrink wrap bag.
  • Use shrink film bands to secure lids and caps.
  • Secure and protect bigger items with shrink wrap rolls.
  • Use shrink wrap tubing from a roll to wrap packages of different lengths.

Shrink Wrapping Advantages

There are a few key advantages when you opt to use a shrink-wrapping machine for your packaging and shipping needs. You get protection, durability, tamper-proofing, and branding opportunities when you use shrink wrapping machine. Let's take a closer look at these advantages.

Protection

When heat is applied to shrink wrap, it creates a very tight seal. This plastic seal then fully protects the shrink-wrapped content. Once it is sealed, the items are no longer vulnerable to the damage that can be caused by dust, dirt or moisture. Depending on the type of manufacturer, some shrink wrap offers UV protection, too, which will keep the packages and items safe from the potentially harmful rays of the sun.

Durability

Shrink wrap is made from durable plastics. The three most common plastics include PVC, polyethylene, and polyolefin. The most traditional plastic used for shrink wrap is PVC, which you will see for packing items like software boxes, office supplies and CDs. Polyolefin is used to wrap food products, as well as for more premium retail applications. And Polyethylene films can be extremely thick and sturdy for industrial applications.

Tamper Proofing

Since shrink wrap seals and holds its shape once you apply it, any tampering of the wrap is immediately noticed. Due to this ability to see the tampering, many pharmaceutical companies now shrink wrap their products. Food manufacturers do the same, too. Some types of shrink wraps used by banks and government agencies will change color when there is stretching of the plastic which will show that the sealed items have been touched.

Preservation

If foods need to be preserved, shrink wrapping is the perfect choice to use. Many foods that need to be preserved, either for transport or for an extended shelf life, are preserved using shrink wrap. Food-grade polyolefin shrink wrap has become a common choice for many food production companies.

Convenience

Shrink wrap is one of the few packaging materials out that that can be used for projects of any size. Small electrical wires are often shrink wrapped in order to prevent exposure to moisture. Hardware, game pieces, and candies can all be bunched and shrink wrapped. Bigger applications like greenhouses and boat weatherizing can also utilize shrink wrapping. Frieght on trailers and trains can also be shrink wrapped to allow for easier transport. And on rare occasions, even entire buildings can be shrink wrapped in order to prevent chemical leaks or exposure to hazardous materials.

Branding Opportunities

Sometimes shrink wrap can be designed with colors, words, pictures, and logos. All of which can help you promote your business. With certain types of shrink wrap, your product is not just wrapped in plastic, it is wrapped in your brand.
