5 Reasons to Review Your Shrink Wrap Packaging

September 22, 2009

Filed under: Packaging Equipment — Pioneer Packaging @ 9:04 am

Shrink film is highly efficient method of packaging items when appearance and protection are both important. Shrink wrap packaging has been around for a long time, and as a result, users need to evaluate their systems on a regular basis. Here are five reasons why.

Changes in shrink film technology. Today’s films are stronger, more versatile, and – less expensive. We can assist you with film testing to ensure you are using the best shrink film for your application.

Changes in shrink wrap equipment technology. Shrink wrap machines have become faster, more energy efficient, and easier to maintain. If your machines have been in service for many years, new equipment might reduce per package costs significantly.

Complete packaging solutions. In many cases, shrink film and overall packaging costs can be significantly reduced by considering the packaging process as a whole. For example, instead of using a corrugated tray and a shrink film overwrap, consider a corrugated slip sheet, or eliminating corrugated material altogether in favor of a shrink bundling system. Our sales staff has seen a host of applications and can bring you ideas that have been implemented successfully in related industries.

New shrink wrap applications. Manufacturers and distributors of consumer packaged goods (CPGs) have found that bundling like products or related products is a highly effective marketing approach. There may be new sales opportunities within your existing product lines that can be tapped by utilizing a new shrink system or modifying an existing one. In addition, simply upgrading to a higher quality shrink film can make an existing product more attractive, giving the product more “shelf appeal”.

Equipment service. Regular maintenance is a must in order to keep shrink wrap systems operating at peak efficiency. We offer users in Phoenix and Arizona a wide variety of service and replacement part options.
