Shrink Sleeves
If you are looking for modern, efficient and practical packaging, you’re at the right place.
Shrink sleeves are full-size peripheral labels having the form of sleeves that shrink around the product as a result of thermal reaction. Martin Peroutka Co. is one of the first Czech manufacturers to offer this modern packaging material.
What are the advantages of shrink sleeves?
Your products won’t be overlooked and you will also be able to reduce your costs!
- One of the biggest advantages is the opportunity to print on the entire surface of packaging (full-size print). This feature considerably enhances its efficiency. Shrink sleeves can be used even for relatively complicated shapes unsuitable for conventional labels.
- The new full-size design combined with high-quality UV flexographic print warrants better communication and more intensive brand promotion.
- By using shrink sleeves instead of applying several individual labels, you can cut your expenses considerably. This economic aspect is also important if the customer wishes to reduce its purchases of printed packing materials (for instance, drink cans).
- Shrink sleeves allow the use of unprinted (universal) packaging means and considerable reduction of production volumes.
Increased Protection of Products and Persons
- It is possible to ensure that the packaging is non-transparent or secure an increased level of protection against light.
- Increased safety of the packaging itself – this applies above all to glass packaging.
- Considerable noise reduction of automatic filling lines (glass packaging).
- Higher level of handling safety (reduced risk of shooting of glass pieces in the event of an impact causing the packaging to crack).
High Resistance and Stability
- High printing stability – bottom printing protects packaging against abrasion even in the course of harsh handling.
- High resistance against possible surface soiling of packaging.
- Sealing effect – once pulled over the lid or cap and shrunk, the sleeve will ensure that the contents cannot be tampered with.
- High stability – properly shrunk sleeves are very stable, they do not become loose even in the case of increased humidity or mechanical stress.
Other Possibilities
- Use of perforation and easy-open effects, including tear-off PP bands with linear perforation.
- Use of shrink sleeves for cluster packing or packaging combinations designated for various promotional or premium events.
- Highly transparent materials may also be used to ensure that it is possible to check the contents visually.
- Use of UV paints for the purpose of special effects.
- Supplies of individual items – cut products.
- Use of shrink sleeves as fixation or sealing elements for specific applications.
Special Effects
- Colour effects – metallic, reflective.
- Gloss effect – under UV rays (disco effect).
- Internal print – unique alphanumerical codes.
