Shrink wrap is one of the better options for packaging that you have. Heat (or steam) and the appropriate kind of plastic film are two items needed for the extremely simple process of shrink wrapping. Typically, the plastic film is wrapped around the intended item/product. The plastic will then shrink and adapt to the shape of the product or object as a result of the application of heat and steam to this surface.

Polymer plastic film is used to create shrink wrap, commonly known as shrink film. It shrinks tightly over whatever it is covering when heat is applied. Electric or gas-powered heat guns can be used to apply heat, or the product and film can move through a heat tunnel on a conveyor.

For tamper resistance or labelling, shrink bands are placed over certain areas of packages. As a tamper-evident band, it is usable.

It can also create a Multi-pack by combining two packages or pieces.

Using a greater weight shrink film, shrink wrap is also frequently utilised in applications that are more industrial in nature. When employing a hand-held heat gun for the heat shrinking process, the fundamentals stay the same. Applications for shrink wrap that are gaining popularity and acceptance include:

the containment of massive plant components and equipment using industrial shrink wrap,
building/bridge confinement using scaffolding,
construction of transient shrink-wrapped buildings for storage or other business-related purposes,
boats and other vehicles wrapped in marine shrink,
Palletized freight shrink-wrapped[6] Disaster relief and contingency work like mended roofs and destroyed structures.
