Shrink wrap bags are some of our best selling products. Companies choose shrink bags for wrapping a variety of items ranging from batteries to gift baskets. When using shrink bags with a fully automated machine, most machines will have some type of hole punch to allow air to escape the bag after being sealed. After the seal is made shrink bags fill up with air that needs to be released before applying heat. The punch on the fully automatic machines allow that air to escape, promoting a better shrink fit.
Many of our online clients are start-up or small to medium operations. We love our online start-up clients and their desire for the American dream. Many of them use shrink wrap bags for a variety of products. Products that are commonly wrapped include: soap, batteries, magazines, books, cd’s, dvd’s, display items, and more.
People or companies new to shrink bags often have a hard time figuring out why they are trapping air inside of the sealed bag. If you seal the bags properly they should have an air tight seal, which will trap air inside of the shrink bag. Users could manually use a hole punch to allow air to escape, but we have something better.
Vented shrink wrap bags! All vented bags come with a small hole punched into them to allow trapped air to escape. Most of our vented shrink wrap bags come in the same sizes as the regular flat shrink bags we offer. Sizes range from 4″x6″ shrink bags to 12″x18″ bags.
