Properties of universally applicable shrink films

Polyolefin shrink films are the workhorse of the packaging film world. Transparent, high-gloss, and strong—yet flexible enough to accommodate products of any shape.

Thanks to electronic interlacing, the films shrink films in all directions. The result: wrinkle-free packaging, even for irregular shapes. Whether rectangular, cylindrical, or irregularly shaped—the film adapts.

Protection and style in one

Transparency: A clear view of the product—during transport and at the point of sale. Product quality is visible before the packaging is opened.

Moisture protection: The film protects against moisture and contamination—without affecting the product's appearance.

Mechanical strength: Impacts, pressure, and friction during transport are reliably absorbed. The product arrives in the same condition as when it left the factory.

Tamper-evident: Once shrunk, the film shows visible signs of tampering if accessed without authorization. Authenticity is immediately apparent.

Printability & Brand Communication

Printed options: Logos, product information, barcodes, and safety instructions can be printed directly onto the film. Less additional material, clear brand messaging.

Direct thermal printing and thermal transfer printing: Both printing methods are compatible. Serial numbers and batch codes can be printed as needed.
