Premium Heat-Shrink Sleeve Film

PETG Shrink Film

PETG shrink film is a heat-shrinkable plastic film made from glycol-modified polyethylene terephthalate (PETG).

Its key advantages include exceptional transparency, impact-resistant strength, and smooth uniform shrinkage.

It can shrink up to more than 78% around complex container shapes without wrinkling.

This makes it the industry standard for high-end shrink sleeve labels on beverage bottles, cosmetic containers, pharmaceutical packaging, yogurt cups, tamper-evident seals, and irregular shaped containers.

PETG Shrink Film Applications

PETG shrink film is used across many major industries — food and beverage, cosmetics and personal care, pharmaceutical, household products, electronics, automotive, and more. Typical applications include full-body shrink sleeve labels, tamper-evident bands, multi-pack bundling, and 360° branding on bottles, jars, and irregular-shaped containers.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does JFPolyFilm verify the quality of every batch?
We collect samples of at least 5 meters from every production batch and run full property tests — shrinkage rate, thickness uniformity, haze, tensile strength — then issue a Certificate of Analysis (COA) attached to each shipment.
How many splices are in a shrink film roll?
The number of splices is printed on the roll label on the side of each roll. In most cases our PETG shrink film rolls have zero splices.
How does JFPolyFilm identify each roll and pallet?
Each roll carries a label on its side identifying batch number, length, width, and production date. Each pallet has a label attached to the outside of the outer thermal insulation cover identifying the SKUs inside.
What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
MOQ depends on film grade, thickness, width, and color. Please contact us with your specifications for an exact quote — most standard PETG orders start at 1 ton.
How is the film packed and shipped internationally?
Two packing methods: vertical packing (~20 rolls per pallet) for higher density, or horizontal packing (6 rolls per pallet) for sensitive jobs. Both are wrapped in polyethylene film with protective boards top and bottom to prevent shipping damage. Please contact our sales team for more details and photos.
How should PETG shrink film be stored?
Store at 10-30°C (50-86°F) in a dry environment. Avoid direct sunlight, moisture, and dust. Recommended shelf life is 12 months in original packaging.
What printing methods are compatible with PETG shrink film?
Gravure printing, flexographic printing, and UV inkjet printing all work well with our PETG shrink film. The film accepts ink directly without corona pre-treatment.
Is the film corona-treated for printing?
No, corona treatment is not required. Our PETG shrink film accepts gravure and flexographic ink directly thanks to its inherent surface energy.
What seaming adhesive is used for the sleeve seal?
Please contact our sales team for more details.
What's the recommended shrink tunnel temperature?
Best results are achieved between 95-100°C. Options: boiling water bath (90-100°C), hot air tunnel (95-110°C surface, film actual ~95°C), or steam shrink tunnel (90-100°C). A heat gun can be used for prototyping small batches.
Can I request product samples before placing an order?
Yes. We offer A4 sheet samples, 300m short rolls, or 2000m short rolls. Customer covers shipping costs.
Is PETG shrink film environmentally friendly?
Yes — 100% recyclable, and significantly more eco-friendly than PVC shrink film. PETG releases no chlorine during incineration and is GRS / REACH / RoHS certified.
