Shrink Film
Featuring FDA & USPS-approved shrink film
FOR USE IN SEMI-AUTOMATIC & AUTOMATIC EQUIPMENT
Shrink film, also known as shrink wrap, is a type of plastic film used to cover and protect products. The film shrinks when heated, creating a tight, secure fit.
Shrink film is often used to package food, household items, and other products or merchandise including containers, pallets, and other large objects. At EIS Automation, we offer shrink wrap film for use in both automatic and semi-automatic equipment.
What Are Polyolefin Shrink Film Materials?
Polyolefin shrink film materials are some of the most common packaging materials used today!
They are common choices for packaging products and merchandise because they are strong and durable.

Increased Product Safety
1
Shrink wrap can keep your products safe by offering a barrier to moisture, dirt, insects, and tampering while in transportation or storage.
Prolonged Life of Products
2
Shrinking your products also helps to reduce the amount of oxygen around them, which can prolong their shelf life by slowing down the rate at which they oxidize or spoil.
Reduce Space for Storage and Transport
3
When packaging merchandise for storage or transportation, shrink wrap is an easy way to save space by bundling and packaging items closely together.
Reduce Packaging Costs

Shrink wrap is also known to be a cost-effective packaging material to other more traditional packaging materials like cardboard boxes or bubble wrap.
