Clysar® Value-Added Options

No or Low Cost to Solutions for Improved Packaging Performance

Maximize the performance of Clysar® shrink films with these value-added options, many available at no added cost.

Double Rolls

One of the best ways to save on changeover and downtime is to switch from single- to double-length film rolls. You’ll run your shrink line longer, and get twice the number of packages to a roll. (Quad rolls are also available for high-volume applications.) See your Clysar distributor to discuss size/weight considerations for your operation.

Efficiency Packs

With the rising cost of corrugate disposal, the cardboard boxes used to ship shrink film cost you money every trip to the dumpster. If you use an average of 1-3 rolls of film per day, per line, ask about Clysar’s corrugate-free efficiency packs for your film—where rolls of film are placed on pallets and held in place with plastic cores and spacers

Efficiency packs reduce handling costs too. They can be set in your production area, so operators can take rolls directly from the pallet to the machine—no lost time unboxing film or waiting for materials.

Hot Slip Treatment

Want faster pack-out? A silicone hot slip lubricant can be added to your shrink film’s outer surface, making it faster and easier to slide shrinkwrapped packages in master cartons, even when warm.

By applying hot slip to the INSIDE surface of your film, Clysar can add tack to your package’s outer surface, which improves package appearance for irregular or slippery products like binders, plus gives you added traction for stacking and packing.

Pre-Perforated Film

Perforating your film by hand? Or dealing with an old or damaged perforating unit?

Many types of Clysar® film can be ordered pre-perforated—a no-cost option that significantly improves air evacuation and overall package appearance. A standardized pattern of small holes is applied to the film, allowing excess air to escape evenly around the sealed package as the shrink bag balloons. This creates crisp, beautiful, evenly wrapped packages.

Specially engineered perforation patterns can also be ordered for produce or other “outgassing” organic materials that allow built-up air within the package to be naturally released

Print Treatment

Printing your shrink film? Clysar can also apply an invisible “corona” treatment that roughs up the surface of the film, so it holds ink and creates crisp, colorful graphics.
