The company that relies on shrink wrap to protect their products will often need a large industrial shrink wrap machine that can make the wrapping process more automatic. The most efficient way to process a large number of items that need to be wrapped is with an industrial sealer and an automatic heat tunnel.

There are many different types of sealers. Some require you to do each item by hand, while others are automated. The price rises substantially the more automated the system gets. If your packages vary in shape, consider the use of a sleeve shrink wrapper.

These will accommodate a wide variety of shapes and sizes through the use of two rolls of shrink wrap film which are sealed in the middle. If you want to protect bags that contain items that are liquid or can be easily spilled, your best bet is a continuous band sealer. A mail bagging system is good for boxes, magazines, and newspapers.

If the items you are wrapping require extra protection, consider using a vacuum sealer to remove the air. Once the air is removed, the package can be sealed. You’ll then want to run the package through a heat tunnel to shrink any extra packaging. Heat tunnels have conveyor belts that pull the items through a tunnel that is hot enough to shrink the wrap on the packages. This can help speed up the process substantially.

You can also buy industrial machinery for shrink wrapping furniture and other items that need to wrap. There are machines that can process very fast to wrap an item in a minute. These machines come in several speed options so you can find one that best suits your needs and budget.

There are a tremendous amount of items that benefit from the use of shrinkwrap. Although the initial investment into the machines may be costly, the amount of time you save by an automated process is well worth the extra expense.
