Usage Instructions
Place product inside the pre-made bag with the open end positioned for heat application. Using a heat gun on medium setting, apply heat evenly around the bag starting from the bottom and working upward. The PVC film will conform tightly to the product shape. For best results, rotate the product while applying heat to ensure uniform shrinkage. Allow a few seconds to cool before handling.
Equipment Requirements
These shrink bags require only a heat gun for operation—no expensive shrink tunnel or L-bar sealer needed. This makes them cost-effective for small to medium volume operations. For high-volume production, consider our shrink film rolls with sealing equipment.
