Stretch sleeve packaging
Manual application
Manual application can be carried out with or without machines. The choice depends on the amount of sleeve packaging to be applied and the required rate.
Semi-automatic application
Human-machine collaboration makes application easier: the machine stretches the sleeve to make it easier to insert your product.
Automatic application
- Application rates,
- Integration with the filling line,
- Machine specifications
Our expertise in stretch sleeve application means we can help you with the installation of shrink sleeve applicators. Specialized machine designers in France and Europe can provide exactly what you want
Shrink sleeves
Shrink sleeves are applied in two stages:
1. Application
Shrink sleeves can be applied manually (without machines) or automatically.
2. Shrinking
The sleeve packaging is shrunk mechanically: using heat, industrial blowers (small runs) or shrink tunnels (hot air or steam).
