What color shrinkwrap is right for me?

White Shrinkwrap—is the color that works best for most shrinkwrapping applications.  We have a large selection of mil thicknesses and widths to cover almost any item.   White reflects heat and stays tight in all weather conditions which makes it an ideal transportation cover.   In addition, as the white reflects heat it keeps whatever is underneath the shrinkwrap more of a constant temperature, thereby minimizing condensation and moisture build up.  White shrinkwrap comes in 6, 7, 8, 8.5, & 10-ml thicknesses.



Blue Shrinkwrap—is generally used in snow-load areas as it absorbs heat which helps any accumulated snow to slide off the shrinkwrap covers.  Its heat absorption capabilities make it a less than desirable product for warm climates where it can overheat the products under the covers.   It will also “loosen up” in hot conditions which means it can move and chafe on itself and is not good for use as a transportation cover.  Blue Shrinkwrap comes in 6, 7, & 8-ml thicknesses.



Clear Shrinkwrap—is used to cover greenhouses,  make boat covers for brokerage boats and live aboards, machinery covers, etc.  The advantage of clear is that you can see through it, the disadvantage is that sun penetrating the covers can accentuate the buildup of moisture under the cover. Care must be taken to ventilate clear shrinkwrap covers or put desiccants under the shrinkwrap.   Clear comes in 6 and 7-ml thicknesses.



All of our premium shrinkwrap is made of 100% virgin resin materials with maximum UV inhibitors for long term outside usage.  We offer several mil thicknesses for different types of applications.  All of our shrinkwrap is recyclable using the REBAG® Recycling Bags.  It is a #4 Low Density Polyethylene.
