Lancing UK shrink wrapping machinery

Retail shrink wrapping machine

Shrink wrapping machinery for clear, consistent presentation packs and shelf-ready products.

Retail finish

Clean presentation and product protection

Retail shrink wrapping is often about appearance as much as containment. A good machine route should create consistent seals, clear film finish and minimal corner excess while protecting the product during handling and display.

Machine choice

Choose by pack type

Single cartons and printed goods often suit an L-sealer and heat tunnel. Grouped cans, bottles or trays may suit a sleeve sealer. Very low volume product wrapping may be better handled with a chamber sealer.

Specification

Useful details for retail pack quoting

  • Product dimensions and weight.
  • Pack photograph or sample.
  • Desired film clarity and finish.
  • Target packs per minute.
  • Need for coding, labelling or inspection after wrapping.
