Shrink Tunnels

Industrial Shrink Tunnels

Controlled Heat and Airflow for a Consistent, Professional Shrink Finish

Our industrial shrink tunnels are designed to operate after an L-sealer, side sealer or sleeve wrapper, applying controlled heat to shrink the film tightly and consistently around each product.

Available in a range of tunnel sizes, chamber lengths and conveyor configurations, each system is specified around your product dimensions, shrink film and required throughput. Severn Packaging can supply the complete shrink-wrapping line, including machinery, compatible film, installation, operator training and ongoing UK support.
