Drop-in Method : Enclose your complete basket with a bow
3A. When using this method, be sure your shrink film
width is wider than your basket height. Pull out enough shrink film to
cover the widest part of your basket. Then lower the sealing arm on the
PacWrap® for 2-3 seconds. By using the PacWrap® Shrink Wrapping System
you can make a custom size bag for just pennies! Fast too!
3B. Open the bag and drop your basket into this
custom shrink bag. You can now trim the dog-ears on the basket bottom as
shown in 1 C, or simply push them under the basket.
3C.
Gather the excess shrink film evenly at the
top of your basket. Now you can tie this off with a ribbon or other
accent.
NOTE Film cost for
this basket is 6-8 cents.
3D. Aiming your
PacWrap®
Heat Gun down, start
by slowly moving the gun around the bottom of the basket, then move your
way up to the top. Don't shrink the excess shrink film at the top. It
there are dog-ears left, just shrink these with direct heat contact from
the heat gun, then continue as described. Don't worry, the
PacWrap®
Heat Gun won't burn
holes in your film, even with direct contact.
Through the
Handle: Wrap your basket with the handle free
4A. Pull out enough shrink film from the PacWrap®
Shrink Wrapping System to go over your products and under the handle of
the basket. After you have made your seal, by lowering the sealing arm,
you may open the seams to expand the width of the center-folded film.
4B. Pull
the shrink film under the handle and over your products as shown. Wrap
any excess film around the bottom of the basket.
4C.
Crisscross the film at the sides of the handles as shown. This makes for
a better, tighter fit to hold your products in place.
NOTE Film cost for
this basket is 3-4 cents.
4D. Tape
the film where it crosses to hold it in place. This can then be covered
or not with a bow or other accent.
4E. Seal
the film where it crosses using the Hand Sealer. The excess film may
be trimmed with a pair of scissors. This again may or may not be covered
with a bow or other accent.
4F. Take
the PacWrap®
Heat Gun and hold it
right down onto the shrink film at the bottom of the basket. Don't
worry,the
PacWrap® Heat
Gun won't burn holes in your film. Proceed around the bottom working
your way up to the lip of the basket. Now shrink the film over the top
of your products. A piece of tape may be placed on the basket bottom for
security. Now, your items will be held securely in place. Secure enough
for shipping and good looking at the same time.
