When it comes to using a Ripack® shrink gun, the choice of gas is essential to guarantee both the heating performance and the durability of the equipment. Our equipment works exclusively with propane in the gaseous phase or bio-propane, and it is strictly forbidden to use butane, as this would compromise the correct operation and […]
Corrosion resistant packaging How to protect my products?
Protection against corrosion is a major concern for companies shipping sensitive goods—especially metal components—over long distances or in humid environments. Transport conditions, ambient humidity, temperature fluctuations, and exposure to salty air can accelerate the corrosion process, thereby compromising the integrity of the goods. To address this issue, shrink film enhanced with Volatile Corrosion Inhibitors (VCI) offers an effective and long-lasting solution.

Find the right solution for your needs
VCI Technology serving your corrosion protection needs

Large items such as metal parts, foundry molds, or industrial equipment are particularly vulnerable to corrosion during transit, especially by sea or during prolonged storage. VCI technology, integrated into shrink films, creates a protective barrier against moisture and corrosive agents. By releasing active molecules, the VCI forms an invisible layer on the surface of metals, effectively inhibiting corrosion without requiring additional treatments.
This corrosion protection method offers key advantages: it eliminates the need for complex over-packaging or manual application of anti-corrosion products. Furthermore, the shrink film conforms perfectly to irregularly shaped objects, ensuring a full and airtight coverage.

A solution tailored to industrial requirements
In addition to the technical benefits provided by VCI, the shrink film forms a genuine waterproof and airtight cocoon around the packaged goods. Regardless of the size or shape of the item, the film is designed to meet the demands of even the most rigorous industrial sectors. It is ideal for:
• Maritime transport: where exposure to salty air is constant.
• Outdoor storage: offering protection against humidity, rain, and climate variations.
• Long-distance shipments: ensuring product integrity until the final destination.
By choosing this solution, companies benefit from effective corrosion protection, reducing the risk of damage, lowering return or replacement costs, and improving customer satisfaction.
