Shrink wrap can be an inexpensive alternative when packaging products. Instead of purchasing boxes for each individual product, a single layer of shrink wrap can be used to assemble multiple pieces together. This reduces labor costs as well as eliminates costly packaging, making it favorable for many companies. Shrink wrapping can be completely automated if it is part of a large production line. Automated shrink wrap lines result in considerable savings for their users because of the near or total elimination of labor costs and the increase in product output capacity.
