Why Use Shrink Wrapping for Bakery Products?

Shrink wrapping provides a protective and visually attractive package around bakery products and trays. The film shrinks around the product after sealing, creating a compact package suitable for handling, display and distribution.

The appropriate packaging solution depends on the characteristics of the baked product. Bread, pizza, cakes, pastries and other bakery products can require different films, temperatures, machine settings and levels of automation.

Pactur can evaluate the customer’s product and packaging requirements to identify the most appropriate machine configuration and shrink film for the application.
