Why POF is common for presentation packs
POF shrink film is widely used for retail cartons, books, cosmetics, boxed goods and printed packs because it can provide a clear finish with good presentation. The machine needs to suit the film width, thickness and shrink characteristics.
Machine settings
Seal and tunnel settings affect finish
