Shrink Wrap Tunnels in Action
Shrink Wrap Tunnel Benefits & Highlights
Shrink Wrap Tunnels are often used with an L-Bar Sealer or Side seal, applying heat to shrink film tightly around product after it's been sealed.
Benefits include:
- Increased efficiency
- Protects product from dust, moisture, tampering
- Professional and consistent results
- Works with polyolefin, PVC, and polyethylene shrink films
Nassco partners with trusted manufacturers including Eastey, Conflex and Texwrap.

What Are The Different Types of Tunnel Shrink Wrappers?
Eastey
Performance Series
- Four-directional air flow provides positive shrinking
- Variable air flow for a variety of products and applications
- Designed to shrink most polyolefin, polyethylene, and PVC shrink films
- Live roller or stainless steel mesh belt conveyors; optional “dead” roller conveyor for polyethylene
- Conveyor speed up to 67 fpm

Conflex
The consistent shrink tunnel air temperature and unique Archimedean airflow design offer superior shrink results at lower temperatures versus traditional shrink tunnels.
Vortex 48 & 72
- Unique design positions the 3 heating elements in the heat chamber to heat the air around the package
- Produces professional shrink appearance
- Full control over the airflow with minimal power consumption.
- Vortex 48: 3 heating elements in the heat chamber
- Vortex 72: 5 fully adjustable heating elements in the heat chamber
TexWrap
Texwrap’s standard line of forced air tunnels are capable of producing excellent results with most packages. Digital temperature controls, high velocity fans, individual top and bottom controls for air direction, and variable speed conveyors all contribute to the precise control of the process to put the right amount of heat of the right places over the correct amount of time to produce outstanding shrink results.
Available in:
- Single Chamber: Ideal for lower speed applications, generally paired with an L-Bar Sealer
- Double Chamber: Ideal for medium speed applications with improved control, pairs with continuous motion shrink wrappers
- Triple Chamber: Ideal for high speed applications requiring precise and consistent results, typically paired with high-speed automatic shrink wrappers.
