In manufacturing shrink packaging systems, or heat shrink labelers and shrink tunnels, have become the new standard for applying packaging to a wide range of products. A heat shrink labeler can be used to apply shrink sleeves to products like canned goods, cosmetics, cleaning products, personal care items, and much more. This style of packaging is also used to apply tamper evident neck banding and convenient twin and multi pack sleevs for items sold in bulk. Shrink packaging systems consist of two pieces of machinery, the first is a heat shrink labeler which applies the sleeve or banding to your product. The second is a shrink tunnel, which applies heat to the product and sleeve to fit the packaging to size. This style of packaging is easy, affordable, and fast, making it the go to option for applying custom packaging and branding. If you need help finding the best shrink packaging systems for your facility, AMAC Technologies can help.
