PVC Shrink Film Parameters for Different Applications

May. 24, 2023

1. Shrink Parameters for Beverage Labels:

  • Transverse Direction (TD) Shrinkage: 50-52%

  • Machine Direction (MD) Shrinkage: 2%

These parameters are commonly used for producing and applying shrink film labels on beverage containers after printing. The shrink film, with a transverse direction shrinkage of 50-52%, is applied to the bottles, and upon heating, it tightly conforms to the shape of the container, providing label protection and an aesthetically pleasing appearance. The machine direction shrinkage is kept low at 2% to prevent significant distortion or deformation of the label content.


2. Shrink Parameters for Product Packaging:

  • Transverse Direction (TD) Shrinkage: 50%

  • Machine Direction (MD) Shrinkage: 25%

These parameters are suitable for packaging various products. The shrink film, with a transverse direction shrinkage of 50%, is used to wrap and secure the products. During the heating process, the film shrinks in the transverse direction, providing a snug fit around the product. The machine direction shrinkage is higher at 25%, effectively reducing the package size and ensuring a tight appearance.
