Fragile goods doesn’t strictly mean light goods. Like a plastic bottle, fragile goods may be liable to deformation, friction, humidity or corrosion. Shrink-wrap, due to its composition and ease of use, offers a number of solutions to all of these problems. Its ability to wrap products tightly guarantees effective protection against impact and harmful environmental influences.
There are lot of kind of fragile products : light goods, UV and humidity sensitive, unsteady goods, easy scrachted…
This versatile method adapts to the diverse shapes of fragile goods, providing a reliable barrier against potential damage throughout the supply chain.
Find the right solution for your needs
During storing or transporting of your goods, there is a significant risk that some of your products may get damaged and the conditions allong the way may result in defects that adversely affect customer satisfaction.
For a food container manufacturer, complete impermeability to dust is required. In this case, shrink-wrap can meet this requirement by adding layflat film between the pallet and the load, which is welded to the cover when it is shrunk. This example demonstrates one of the many advantages of shrink-wrap.
Packaging rubbing on painted products (boat hull, bodywork, etc.) can scratch them and require costly repair work. Some shrink-wrap techniques incorporate a silky protective layer which makes it possible to prevent this risk. The shrinkwrap works as the second skin and your delicate product is well protected in its cocoon.
Lastly, the best thing about shrink-wrap, apart from its stability, is that it can adapt to the shape of the load. Unlike stretch film that is wrapped very tightly to provide average stability, shrink-wrap moulds closely to the shape of the product and becomes rigid once cooled. In addition to providing exceptional stability, shrink-wrap keeps the load in great condition. With bi-oriented retraction, the load is well maintained. This technical propriety ensures horizontal grouping and vertical support of your products on the pallet.
The technical excellence of shrink-wrap makes it the prefect solution to a number of problems. In this case, wrapping plays another role in addition to stabilising your load and becomes a strategic means of preserving product quality.. Opaque white films that protect boats during overwintering contain, for example, UV-inhibitors to prevent fabrics and paintwork getting discoloured.
Technology called VCI (Volatile Corrosion Inhibitor) makes it possible to prevent metal parts getting corroded during transport. These solutions have been incorporated into shrink-wrap in order to wrap large parts, foundry moulds or other items liable to rust.
