Hybrid shrink film of Gunze: The world’s first high shrinkage at low temperature film taking both advantages of PET and OPS material

Hybrid shrink film (HIT)
-Trends of PVC-free The PVC-free trend has influenced all over the world and many global brands are already aware of negative impacts which PVC will cause. If this trend continues, PVC will prevent the resource circulation because it is less used compared to other materials and not suitable for recycling. As one of the leading companies in packaging solutions, it is necessary to open the market with alternatives: Hybrid shrink film (HIT). -About HIT HIT is the original multi-layered film of PET and PS, taking advantages of each material. It is used as labels of beverages, beauty, home and personal care goods. The multi-layered film shrinks up to 80%, so it can finish without wrinkles and strains. -Eco-friendly approach Another advantage of HIT is eco-friendly approach. Compared to PET which density is 1.35, the density of HIT is 1.1, so it can reduce the amount of plastic use. Also, our unique technology of “high shrinkage at low temperatures” enables us to require less energy of labeling machine, which leads to CO2 emissions reduction. Below is the link of brief presentation of our shrink film. We are looking forward to meet the new partners to work with.
