What is Shrink Film?

Shrink film is a special plastic film that contracts when exposed to heat and tightly wraps around an object. This creates a stable, protective covering that prevents dirt, dust, or moisture from entering. Depending on its application, shrink film is made of polyethylene (PE), polyolefin (PO), or polyvinyl chloride (PVC).

We offer high-quality shrink films specifically designed for use with the Stepstar Comfort shoe cover machine. With this solution, you can ensure clean floors in hygiene-sensitive areas without requiring your guests or employees to struggle with putting on shoe covers.

Where is Shrink Film Used?

Shrink film is versatile and used across various industries.

• Packaging industry: Secure and transparent packaging solutions for all types of products.
• Food industry: Protective packaging that keeps food fresh and hygienic.
• Logistics and transportation: Securing pallet loads for stable shipping.
• Medical and cleanrooms: Preventing germs from being carried in via shoe soles.
• Gastronomy and hospitality: Protecting carpets and floors from dirt, such as from workers with outdoor shoes.

With shrink film for the Stepstar Comfort shoe cover machine, we offer a hygienic solution that is particularly used in clinics, laboratories, and food production facilities.

How to Use Shrink Film in the Shoe Cover Machine

With the Stepstar Comfort shoe cover machine, you can use shrink film efficiently and effortlessly. Here's how it works:

1. Prepare the machine: Insert the shrink film into the designated holder.
2. Place the shoe in the machine: Simply step onto the marked area with your regular shoes.
3. Automatic wrapping: The machine cuts the film to size, heats it, and wraps it tightly around the shoe.
4. Secure fit: Within seconds, the shrink film perfectly conforms to the shoe, ensuring reliable floor protection.

This process guarantees the highest hygiene standards without wasting time manually putting on shoe covers.

At What Temperature Does Shrink Film Shrink?

The shrinking temperature varies depending on the material:

• Polyolefin (PO): 120 - 160 °C
• Polyethylene (PE): 100 - 140 °C
• PVC: 110 - 130 °C

Our shrink film for the Stepstar Comfort shoe cover machine is designed to shrink at an optimal temperature, ensuring a secure fit around the shoe. The film remains flexible enough for comfortable walking while providing a firm grip.

Which Plastic is Suitable for Shrink Film?

Different types of plastic are used for shrink film depending on the application.

• Polyolefin (PO): Highly tear-resistant, durable, and suitable for hygienic applications.
• Polyethylene (PE): Flexible and soft, ideal for larger packaging and pallet securing.
• Polyvinyl chloride (PVC): High transparency but less environmentally friendly than other materials.

For our shoe cover machines, we use high-quality PVC shrink film, which is ideal for hygienic protection measures and offers long-lasting durability.
