Bsc Preferred SH16100 Center-folded Shrink Film

Product Description

The BSC PREFERRED SH16100 is a center-folded, multi-layer, biaxially oriented polyolefin shrink film designed for use across manual, semi-automatic, and automatic packaging equipment. Because the film is biaxially oriented, it shrinks evenly in both directions without requiring dwell time, which reduces cycle times and improves throughput on production lines. The film offers high gloss and excellent clarity for professional product presentation, while its puncture-resistant construction holds up against irregular product profiles. It meets FDA requirements for direct food contact and carries U.S. Postal Service approval for mailing applications, making it a versatile option for food, retail, and fulfillment operations.

The SH16100 is suited for both commercial and light industrial packaging environments. It performs reliably on a wide range of product shapes, including items with corners, protrusions, or non-uniform geometry where standard films may fail or tear. Cold storage compatibility makes it appropriate for refrigerated or frozen food packaging lines. Application is typically accomplished using a heat gun or a sealing and shrink tunnel system, depending on production volume and equipment availability.

Installation Notes

Installation and application should be performed by personnel familiar with heat-sealing and shrink-wrap equipment.

Ensure adequate ventilation in the work area when heat is applied to the film.
