PVC heat Shrinkable Sleeve / Film / Tube is used in packaging Industry for shrink wrapping since it has so many good properties and economical. The properties of Heat shrinkable PVC sleeve can be listed as follows :

01. Relatively low cost.
02. Excellent chemical resistance.
03. High clarify and gloss.
04. Excellent Printability.
05. Unaffected by Humidity ( Non - fogging ).
06. Good Dimensional stability.
07. High stretch, Permitting wrinkles free wrapping.
08. Good flavor Barrier.
09. Long shelf life without becoming brittle.
10. Low permeability to Oxygen, Nitrogen and Carbon - Di - oxide and water vapor
11. Excellent Thermoforming Characteristics.
12. High Stiffness Modules.
13. Wide choice of colour shades.
14. Better Tear and Impact Properties.
15. Excellent Insulation Resistance.
16. Excellent Corrosion Resistance.
17. Excellent Break down Voltage coupled with mechanical strength
18. Good Abrasion Resistance.

Various Applications can be classified based on the properties of Heat Shrinkable PVC 

 1. Transparency :
         Transparency of heat shrinkable PVC sleeve has attractive aesthetic appeal.
Since the film can be printed on either side, it can be used for packing Household Articles, Novelties, Cosmetics, etc.

 2. Tear Strength :
         Due to such superior mechanical properties wall thickness of the sleeves can be greatly reduced. The thin wall construction of the sleeve makes it flexible and facilities complete, quick and efficient shrinkage. It also gives high degree of transparency, which is ideal for applications where legibility of message printed on the cover is important.

 3. Non - Polar surface :
         PVC sleeve with non - polar surface is an ideal material for different types of printing such as screen printing, Offset printing, Rotogravure printing, etc. This printed transparent or opaque sleeve can be used for covering cardboard, Glass, Metal or Plastic containers or Articles.
         A transparent sleeve on the body of the container insets and protects the label, eliminating need for individual carton. A substantial cost reduction is effected and inventory requirements are simplified.

 4. Excellent Corrosion Resistance :
         PVC sleeve can be used to cover the zinc containers in dry battery cell, to provide protection to outer metallic or cardboard cover. Inside PVC sleeve not only protected the cell but also the expensive equipment such Transistors, Tape Recorders, Flashgun, by providing complete protection against corrosion.
         It can also be used as corrosion resistant or rust resistant packaging for polished steel tubes, rods and profiles, during storage and handling.
