GENERAL INFORMATION ON SHRINK FILM & SHRINK BAGS
Shrink Wrap (#4 LDPE):
• The shrink wrap is manufactured in multiple colors and is typically a 6 or 7 mil,
low density polyethylene (#4 for recycling purposes). What makes this material
different than construction plastic sheeting is that it contains shrinking resins,
UV inhibitors, anti-brittling compounds, and strengtheners so that it will not rip
or tear. Make sure the shrink film is manufactured using only virgin resin material.
WARNING: Shrink wrap can burn. If heat is applied incorrectly, shrink
wrap can ignite into open flame. It can also drop down on to other
combustible material and cause secondary ignition and fire. If at any time
you observe the shrink wrap on fire, immediately stop what you are doing
and carefully inspect the area where you are working for a possible fire.
Keep a fire extinguisher available at all times.
