How to Choose the Right PE Shrink Film for Your Application

PE Shrink Film is an essential packaging material used in many applications, providing a tight tamper-resistant seal that keeps products secure during shipping and storage as well as protecting them against moisture and dust. As this type of protective wrap comes with many options selecting the appropriate one is essential to successfully meeting its purpose.

The choice of shrink film polymers depends on your specific project's requirements. Three main polyolefin types may be employed: Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE), Linear Low-Density Polyethylene (LLDPE), and High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE). Each variety offers distinct properties; therefore you must select one suitable to your application.

Depending upon their application, some types of shrink films require unique features, including printing or UV-enhancing additives, while others might need ventilation, variable coefficient of friction levels, corrosion inhibitors and anti-static additives. To meet these needs, manufacturers need advanced blown film extrusion lines that utilize energy efficiently while producing films with superior optical clarity, consistency and reliable shrink properties.

Jiuteng provides customers with a selection of materials designed to produce multilayer PE films with controlled holding force and excellent printability for multipackaging food, beverages and non-food items such as consumer electronics, appliances, toys and sporting goods.

Jiuteng polyolefin resins meet the stringent performance demands of these applications while offering additional benefits that enhance the economics of producing PE shrink films, such as cost-efficient production processes, reduced capital investments, improved film quality and higher sales revenue, resulting in higher sales revenue and return on investment for producers.

The global PE shrink film market is expanding quickly, spurred on by consumer electronics and automotive manufacturing growth, rising disposable income across many nations, and an increased need for safe packaging that's environmentally friendly. When compared with alternative packaging materials like cardboard or foam containers, shrink-wrap and plastics generally emit less greenhouse gas while being recyclable to create new end products; also using shrink-wrap reduces waste significantly by shrinking and rewrapping items with LDPE film reduces waste by decreasing how many boxes need to be disposed of by eliminating box disposal costs by using shrink wrap compared with alternatives; shrink wrap can often produce fewer greenhouse gases while being recycled into new end products by shrinking and rewrapping products with shrink wrap reducing waste significantly by using shrink rewrapping techniques than alternative packaging options reducing waste significantly compared with alternatives;

Shirk wrapping is one of the easiest and fastest packaging options, requiring no heavy machinery, and easily customizable to each customer's specific needs. Furthermore, PE and LDPE films' recyclable nature makes them a good option for companies trying to establish zero-waste initiatives; additionally, it is tasteless, odorless, impact-resistant, and safe enough for food packaging applications.
