Custom Sized Shrink Bands And Printed Shrink Wrap Films

Sizing: When designing and ordering a custom shrink sleeve band, a number of important measurements are taken. The slit width is the total width of the sleeve before it is seamed. Slightly smaller than the slit width, the critical art width is the area of the sleeve that is printed. A shrink sleeve’s lay flat width is the width of the seamed sleeve or the width of the finished product. The cut length is the total height of the sleeve and the critical art height is the height of the printed area on the sleeve. Generally, the critical art height is 4 mm less than the cut length, leaving 2 mm on the top and the bottom of the sleeve without printing.

Printing & Varnishing: After the size of the shrink sleeve has been determined, art to be printed can be sized appropriately and prepared for the printing process. The imprint is applied to the inside of the material. Depending on how the sleeve is being applied to the container, a varnish may need to be applied over the printing to ensure that the imprint does not scratch and the sleeves run smoothly on the application equipment. The imprint is scratch resistant after the sleeve is applied to the container because it is on the inside of the label.

Perforations:
Big Valley Packaging can provide an option of perforation for shrink sleeves. Perforations are often used on sleeves that will be applied to bottles with screw off tops to provide tamper resistance. Perforations can also be applied to the side of a sleeve to allow easy removal. There can be up to two perforations per sleeve.  Perforated sleeve bands make it easier for your customers to remove and also shows any tamper evidence.

Seam and Fold Areas: When designing a shrink sleeve, the seam and fold areas must be considered. Important design components such as ingredient information or UPC codes should not be on a fold. Seams can fall in the center of the sleeve or off center.

Shrink Sleeve Finishing: Shrink sleeves can either be individually cut or finished on a roll depending on the application method. For many machine-applied shrink sleeves, the labels are finished on a roll. If the labels are to be finished on a roll, the outer diameter of the roll, core size, and rewind position of the roll are critical to ensure the roll will work on the application equipment. We will work with your shrink sleeve applicator to confirm the best finishing method.

We print amazing full-color labels to dramatically improve packaging and presentation at a fraction of the cost of traditional labels. Boost your products appeal while
you lower purchase, storage and production costs with our full sized heat shrink labels. Your product lines are uniquely different even with the same basic container!
