How to Choose the Right Surface Protection Plastic Film and Avoid Problem

Cortec®, being the world leader in providing corrosion protection solutions, has wide types of solutions. One of the solutions is Shrink film, which is a packaging solution that gives effective microbial protection to metal surfaces by wrapping itself closely on the surface. It is one of the most effective ways of corrosion solutions available which is widely used in construction, manufacturing industries.

What are Shrink films?

Cortec’s VpCI® based Shrink films also known as a shrink wrap is the versatile polymer material that is used for the packaging of equipment, instruments for storage, or during the transit. It helps in protecting the material from the environment and hence giving it extreme protection against corrosion.

How does it work?

Cortec’s VpCI® Shrink film combines the latest film technology with effective corrosion protection for all kinds of metal products. It becomes the barrier between metals and the environment and in result providing protection against corrosion, stains, oxidation for up to 5 years.

Heat is applied to the film by heat equipment which catalyzes the film to shrink tightly around the items and provide continuous protection until removed.

Cortec’s shrink film is easily removable and doesn’t leave behind any residue. Equipment is ready to use without any cleaning or degreasing.

Some of Cortec’s most used Shrink Film Packaging in the UAE:

VpCI® - 126

VpCI® - 146 CorShield® VpCI®-146 paper provides superior corrosion protection for both ferrous and non-ferrous metals, eliminating the need to stock a variety of papers for all different types of metals and alloys you need to protect. It’s fully recyclable.

VpCI® - 372

This water-based acrylic corrosion inhibiting peelable coating provides multi-metal protection. It provides protection in two ways: atmospheric corrosion and as a physical barrier to protect against nicks, abrasion, scratches, etc.

Milcorr®

It is a heavy-duty film that protects military vehicles and equipment, industrial equipment, expensive larger equipment, recreational vehicles like boats, etc. It provides long term protection.
