Food: Advantages include perfect adhesion for an excellent aesthetic presentation on the shelf, hygienic protection from moisture and dust, suitability for frozen products, and extreme ease in creating promotional multipacks. The disadvantage is the impossibility of using 100% pure paper wrappers and a slightly lower speed on single portions compared to linear systems. The Imbal Stock solution: to package single portions at very high speeds or to use entirely eco-friendly paper materials, we suggest opting for a pillow bag sealed only on the edges.
Cosmetics: The main advantage is the “second skin” effect, which guarantees maximum brilliance for primary packaging (boxes, perfumes) and creates a tamper-evident seal essential for safety. The disadvantage is heat exposure, which, if uncontrolled, could alter thermosensitive products. The Imbal Stock solution: to completely eliminate thermal stress on ultra-delicate serums, creams, or lipsticks, the ideal choice is direct insertion into a box or the use of a pillow bag, where heat is confined exclusively to the external sealing points without touching the product.
Pharma: Advantages translate into a total safety seal for bottles and boxes, maximum hygiene, and perfect visibility of labels and printed batches thanks to the transparency of the shrink film. The disadvantage emerges with biological or highly thermolabile pharmaceutical products, which cannot tolerate temperature variations. The Imbal Stock solution: to protect the most sensitive active ingredients by avoiding any thermal shock, we recommend a continuous geometric pillow bag or protective insertion inside rigid boxes.
Pet Food: Advantages offer an exceptional and economical solution for creating compact groupings (multipacks) of cans or trays without using additional cardboard, reducing weights and logistical costs. The disadvantage is that this shrunk film is not the suitable format for directly bagging the primary bulk product. The Imbal Stock solution: to package bulk kibble or snacks in small and large formats, the most reliable technical response is the creation of a vertical bag, which guarantees convenience, an odor barrier, and maximum structural seal.
Fresh Food: The great advantage is absolute geometric versatility, capable of perfectly wrapping irregular products like fruit, vegetables on trays, or cheeses, guaranteeing maximum counter hygiene and protection. The disadvantage is that standard shrink film does not allow for gas flushing (Modified Atmosphere Packaging – MAP) to maximize the expiration date of perishable products. The Imbal Stock solution: if the main goal is to extend shelf-life using protective gases, the mandatory route is an airtight pillow bag or the use of a top-sealed tray.
Technical Articles: Among the advantages stands out the ability to firmly lock and “freeze” items together, ideal for assembly kits and manuals, eliminating friction and scratches during handling. The disadvantage is that metal components with very sharp edges, points, or threads can puncture the film during the heat shrink phase. The Imbal Stock solution: for extremely sharp or heavy objects, using a pillow bag made with a very thick and resistant plastic film, or placement in sturdy boxes, represents the safest and most reliable protection.
