Shrink Machines

For industrial operations seeking to optimise product presentation, group items securely, and shield goods from transit damage, L-PAC’s professional shrink machines represent the pinnacle of pack room efficiency. Our machinery range encompasses compact, standalone chamber shrink wrappers—which seal and shrink films like polyolefin and polythene in a single, efficient operation—as well as heavy-duty, continuous-feed semi-automatic and automated shrink tunnels engineered for high-output manufacturing lines.

By wrapping items in high-performance shrink film and passing them through our precisely controlled thermal chambers, these machines form a tight, puncture-resistant, tamper-evident skin around your products. This level of stabilisation is critical for complex engineering sub-assemblies, multi-packs of industrial components, and heavy consumer goods distributed across the UK. Based in the industrial heartlands of Northern England, L-PAC provides manufacturing plants from Teesside to Cheshire with ruggedly constructed machinery designed for continuous shift cycles, low energy consumption, and intuitive operator control.

How does a chamber shrink machine differ from a separate sealer and shrink tunnel setup?
A chamber machine performs both the L-bar sealing and the heat shrinking inside a single hood, making it ideal for compact spaces and low-to-medium volumes. A shrink tunnel setup utilises a separate sealer and a continuous conveyor tunnel, built for high-speed, high-output industrial lines.

Are these shrink machines compatible with both polyolefin and heavy polythene films?
We supply specific models optimised for high-clarity polyolefin (POF) films, as well as heavier, industrial-grade heat tunnels designed to shrink heavy polythene transit film and pallet wraps.

What electrical power supply is required for your industrial shrink machinery?
Depending on the scale and thermal output of the machine, we offer single-phase 240V configurations for smaller workshops and heavy-duty three-phase 415V systems for high-capacity industrial applications.

Can we adjust the temperature and conveyor speed for delicate components?
Yes, our machines feature advanced, user-friendly digital control panels to precisely adjust temperature, conveyor speed, and air velocity to suit different product profiles and film weights.

Does L-PAC offer machine delivery, setup guidance, and ongoing supply of films in the North East and North West?
Absolutely. L-PAC is a full-service B2B partner, offering comprehensive equipment provisioning, expert advice, and ongoing consumable film supply across Manchester, Liverpool, Newcastle, and nationwide.
