Shrink film

Shrink film

Shrink film is a packaging system widely applied in industry because of its easy use and transport, besides its great stability and safety.

We can find shrink film in different formats. One of the most common is collation film, which is used for bundling together several identical items into a single package. It is noted for its great strength, shine and transparency.

At Plásticos RECA, we have a wide variety of collation films and work with special film for high-production rate machines.
