Tubular film

Tubular Film

This category contains transparent tubular film on rolls for packing products with different lengths and shapes. The film consists of a continuous plastic tube that can be cut to the required length and then closed at one or both ends.

Tubular film is available in different widths and thicknesses. This allows the packaging to be matched to the size, weight and shape of the product without keeping a separate bag size for every required length.

Packaging Cut to the Required Length

Because the film is supplied as a continuous tube, the length of each package can be determined individually. This is practical for products with varying lengths or when several standard bag lengths are used within the business.

After cutting, the tubular film can be closed using a compatible sealing method, clip, closure or another process suited to the product and film type.

Different Widths and Film Thicknesses

The correct width depends on the size of the product placed inside the film. Consider the complete circumference and the additional space required to close the package without excessive tension.

• Narrow tubular film: For compact, long or narrow products.
• Wider versions: For larger items and combined packages.
• Different thicknesses: For applications requiring different levels of material strength.
• Transparent design: Keeps the packed product visible.

For Different Products and Applications

Tubular film can be used for bundling, protecting and packing a wide range of items. Depending on the specific version, the film may be suitable for food products, loose components, long items and other products requiring packaging cut to size.

Check the material, thickness and stated application of each product. Not every tubular film is automatically suitable for direct food contact, heating or use with a particular sealing machine.

Dispensing, Cutting and Closing

The film can be cut directly from the roll to the required length. For regular use, a suitable roll holder or dispenser can make processing easier. The selected closing method must be compatible with the material and thickness of the film.

For machine processing, also check the maximum working width, sealing settings and equipment compatibility. Matching film width alone does not guarantee that the roll can be used with every machine.
