PET Heat Shrink Film for Fruit Trays – Durable, Moistureproof Packaging Solution for Food and Retail Applications This premium PET heat shrink film is engineered for high-performance packaging in food service, retail, and industrial sectors. Designed with a rigid structure and moisture-resistant properties, it ensures superior protection for delicate products like fresh fruits while enhancing visual appeal on shelves. The material's unique combination of strength, clarity, and formability makes it ideal for vacuum-formed trays used in supermarkets, produce markets, and gourmet packaging lines worldwide. Key Features: - Material: High-quality PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) resin - Type: Vacuum forming film with excellent shrink characteristics - Thickness Range: 150–1500 microns, offering flexibility for various product sizes - Width Options: Available from 200mm to 1300mm, accommodating custom tray dimensions - Hardness: Rigid yet thermally responsive, ensuring consistent shape retention post-shrink - Density: 1.36 g/cm³, indicating optimal weight-to-strength ratio - Grade: Food-grade A quality, compliant with international safety standards - Processing Method: Compatible with blow molding techniques for efficient production runs The film’s robust moisture barrier prevents condensation buildup and extends shelf life, making it especially effective for perishable goods such as berries, citrus fruits, and cut melons. Its ability to conform tightly around irregular shapes—without tearing or wrinkling—offers a professional finish that boosts brand perception. Unlike traditional plastic wraps or paper-based solutions, this PET variant provides enhanced puncture resistance, UV stability, and dimensional accuracy after heating, which is critical for automated packaging systems. Ideal for fruit tray manufacturers, food processors, and eco-conscious brands seeking sustainable alternatives to single-use plastics, this heat shrink film supports both performance and environmental responsibility. It can be easily integrated into existing manufacturing workflows using standard thermoforming equipment, reducing downtime and increasing throughput. With a minimum order quantity of 1000 kg, it caters well to mid-to-large scale operations looking for cost-effective bulk sourcing without compromising on quality. Common applications include clamshell-style fruit containers, snack trays, bakery packaging, and pharmaceutical blister packs where clarity and structural integrity are essential. Whether used in Europe, North America, or Asia-Pacific regions, the film delivers consistent results across different climatic conditions due to its thermal stability and low coefficient of expansion. Customers have praised its seamless application during production, noting minimal waste and improved product presentation compared to alternative films. Many appreciate how the tight seal reduces spoilage, especially in humid environments, while the glossy surface enhances marketing visibility at point-of-sale locations. Frequently Asked Questions: What thickness should I choose for my fruit tray application? For lightweight fruits like strawberries or grapes, 150–300 microns offers sufficient rigidity without excess material. For heavier items like pineapples or apples, 600–1500 microns ensures structural support and durability during handling. Is this film suitable for direct contact with food? Yes, it meets food-grade safety standards and is approved for use in contact with fresh produce, baked goods, and dry snacks. How does it compare to PVC or PP shrink films? Unlike PVC, PET is recyclable, BPA-free, and has better clarity. Compared to polypropylene, it shrinks more uniformly and maintains sharper edges, resulting in a cleaner aesthetic for branded packaging. Can it be used in automated packaging lines? Absolutely—it is designed for compatibility with high-speed vacuum forming machines and heat tunnels commonly found in modern food packaging facilities. With its balance of functionality, compliance, and aesthetics, this PET heat shrink film stands out as a top choice for businesses aiming to elevate their packaging strategy globally.
