Packaging films for the non-food sector – when packaging is more than just protection
Household goods, drugstore items, toys, cosmetics, office supplies, and stationery—the non-food sector is diverse. So are the requirements for packaging films: an appealing appearance at the point of sale, reliable protection during transport, and efficient processability in production.
Schlichter offers films that meet these requirements. Transparent, high-gloss, printable—and compatible with standard packaging equipment.

films Non-Food – What Matters
In the non-food sector, packaging plays a key role in influencing purchasing decisions. The product should sell itself—and the film helps make that happen.
Appearance & Presentation
Transparency: A clear view of the product. Customers buy what they see. High-glossfilms the visual impact on the shelf.
Printability: Product name, brand logo, EAN code, or care instructions printed directly on the film. Less additional material, clear communication at the point of sale.
Wrinkle-free packaging: Thanks to uniform shrinkage in all directions, the film lies smoothly against the product—even on complex shapes.
Protection during transport
Mechanical protection: The film protects against dents, scratches, and damage during retail display and in transit.
Moisture protection: Products stay dry and undamaged—in storage and during transport.
Tamper-evident packaging: Once shrink-wrapped, the packaging shows visible signs of tampering if someone tries to open it. Authenticity at a glance.
Drugstore & Personal Care
Soaps, creams, skincare products—shrink wrap presents products in an appealing way and reliably protects them all the way to the shelf.
Toys & Hobbies
Toy parts, craft kits, models – shrink wrap bundles and protects them without unnecessarily increasing the size of the packaging.
Office & Stationery
Pens, notepads, binders—bulk packaging made of shrink wrap keeps product groups together and makes them ready for sale.
Household Goods & Cleaning Supplies
Bottles, cans, cartridges—shrink wrap used as secondary packaging protects and bundles products. Tamper-evident features ensure product integrity.
Cosmetics & Beauty
High-end cosmetic products benefit particularly from high-gloss, transparent films. The product looks premium—even before it’s unpacked.
Promotional and multipack packaging
Buy-one-get-one-free offers, multipacks, seasonal items—shrink wrap makes temporary combination packaging quick and cost-effective.
