LDPE film on rolls, wound to fit your machine

Film that is 5 mm too wide jams a former. Film with a wandering gauge burns seals and stops a line mid-shift. We wind to your machine spec, and we hold gauge tolerance tight because that is what keeps your line running.

Every film enquiry we quote well starts with the same four numbers: lay-flat width, micron, core ID and roll OD limit. If you send those, you get a real quote the same day instead of three rounds of email.

Three kinds of film, three different asks

Shrink film
Wrapped loose, then heat-tunnelled or gun-shrunk so it draws tight. Used on bottle packs, brick packs, board and tile bundles. What matters is shrink ratio and hot-tack. Typically 30 to 60 micron.
Packaging film
The workhorse. Runs through a form-fill-seal or overwrap machine and becomes the pack. What matters is gauge consistency and seal strength. Typically 40 to 80 micron.
Plain and liner film
Bought on rolls and converted, cut or used as an inner liner by you. What matters is width accuracy and clean winding. 25 to 150 micron depending on the job.

Why gauge consistency matters more than gauge

Buyers negotiate on micron. Production managers lose sleep over gauge variation. They are not the same thing, and the second one is what stops your line.

Blown film comes off the die as a bubble. If air cooling is uneven or the die is not clean, the wall thickness varies around the circumference. Wind that up and you get a roll that is thick on one side, which shows up as:

  • Telescoping rolls that walk sideways on the unwind and put a diagonal crease through the seal area.
  • Burned or weak seals. A sealing jaw set for 50 micron does the wrong thing to a patch of 42 micron or 58 micron film.
  • Formers that jam on FFS lines, because the film does not fold the same way twice.
  • Roll diameter you cannot predict, so your operators cannot plan changeovers.

What we do about it

Gauge is checked across the web during the run, not just at the start. Rolls are wound with controlled tension so they do not telescope in the truck. On FFS film we hold tighter tolerance than on general film, because the cost of a jam is an hour of your line, not a few rupees of ours. The full test list is on quality and specs.

Every second roll from the last supplier gave us seal failures. Same micron on paper.
PARAPHRASED FROM A PACKAGING PRODUCTION FORUM

Same micron on paper, different film in the machine. That is a gauge variation problem, and it is the most common reason a buyer changes film supplier.

Sending us a sample beats sending us a description

If you already buy film and want a comparison quote, courier us two metres off the roll. We measure gauge with a micrometer at multiple points, check the seal and read the blend. Then we quote either the same spec or a cheaper one that behaves identically. That second outcome is more common than you would expect, because film specs tend to drift upward over years of small requests and nobody ever revisits them.
