Chamber shrink wrapping
A compact chamber can combine sealing and shrinking for lower-volume products where pack dimensions and film fit the chamber.

Check shrink wrapper availabilityQuick answer
Can you hire a shrink wrapping machine?
Yes. Shrink wrapping machine hire may suit a short campaign, seasonal demand, trial pack or temporary requirement. The rental setup can involve a chamber machine, L-sealer and tunnel, sleeve sealer or other compatible shrink process.
The correct route depends on the product dimensions, desired pack appearance, film specification, heat sensitivity, operator input and required speed. Film and product testing may be needed.
Shrink equipment
Choose the process around the finished pack
L-sealer and shrink tunnel
An L-sealer forms the film enclosure before a separate heated tunnel shrinks it, supporting a wider range of product sizes and outputs.
Sleeve and multipack wrapping
Sleeve sealing can group bottles, cans, cartons or other units into a supported or unsupported bundle where product stability allows.
Pack development
What determines shrink wrapper suitability?
A good shrink pack balances protection, appearance, film use and production practicality.
| Detail | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Pack dimensions | Length, width, height, weight and orientation determine seal bar, tunnel opening and conveyor requirements. |
| Product behaviour | Stability, sharp edges, surface finish and sensitivity to heat influence film choice and the suitable process. |
| Film | Material, shrink direction, thickness and width affect sealing temperature, tunnel settings, clarity and strength. |
| Finish standard | Retail presentation, transport protection, tamper indication or simple bundling lead to different priorities. |
| Output | Manual product placement, sealing cycle and tunnel residence time limit achievable packs per minute. |
| Site services | Electrical load, ventilation, space, cooling area, access and safe operator workflow must be planned. |
End-of-line production
Connect wrapping with conveyors and coding
Shrink wrapping often sits at the end of a wider line. Product spacing, bundle collation, conveyors, code position and the movement of the warm finished pack all affect the layout.
Worthing Ltd can review the wrapping stage as a standalone requirement or as part of a temporary packaging line, subject to equipment compatibility and availability.

Shrink hire questions
Common questions before rental
Can shrink wrapping machinery be hired for a one-off contract?
A defined contract or campaign is a common reason to enquire. Provide the total quantity, daily target, dates, pack dimensions and film requirement so the project can be assessed.
Is shrink film included with machine hire?
Film requirements should be identified during the quotation. The exact film must be compatible with the machine and desired pack, and commercial supply arrangements need to be agreed separately.
Can a hired shrink wrapper make bottle multipacks?
Potentially. Bottle shape, bundle pattern, support tray, film strength and stability through the sealer and tunnel must all be reviewed using samples or detailed dimensions.
How much electrical power does a shrink tunnel need?
Electrical demand varies by machine and can be significant. Site voltage, phase, available load, connection and safe isolation must be confirmed before delivery.
