  • High tensile strength, tough impact resistance and superior tear resistance ensures package integrity throughout the production, distribution and merchandising cycle.
  • Excellent reflective gloss and clarity enhances product appearance in retail applications.
  • Strong seals on all sealing systems (nichrome wire, single and multiple piece blades and electrostatic).
  • Corrosion free sealing with no fumes or wire build-up.
  • Very high percentage of shrink allows the film to conform tightly to irregular shapes and minimize dog ears on high profile packages.
  • Excellent burn through resistance in shrink tunnels with variable conditions.
  • Machineable on centerfold, reverse centerfold and form/fill/seal equipment.
  • Works well on wide variety of applications including printed products, frozen foods, baked goods, toys & games, hardware items and multi-packs.
