Discover our premium range of high-clarity, high-strength industrial shrink films designed to perform seamlessly across automated packaging systems.
Switzerland stands as a global hub for pharmaceutical manufacturing, high-end food and beverage processing (including luxury chocolates and mineral waters), and precision mechanical engineering. The Swiss market operates under strict federal regulations regarding resource conservation and recycling structures, notably influenced by the Swiss Packaging Institute (SVI) guidelines and the push towards a circular economy by Swiss Recycling.
For Swiss logistics networks and manufacturing plants, PE (Polyethylene) shrink films represent a crucial element in securing transit packaging. The transition to high-strength, thin-gauge films is highly driven by the Swiss CO2 levy and corporate sustainability targets. Importers and packers demand shrink wraps that offer maximum structural integrity with minimum material weight—a performance standard we address directly with our advanced multi-layer co-extrusion technology.
Your Global Partner for High-Performance Industrial Shrink Wrapping Materials
Zhongshan Tianchen New Materials Co., Ltd. is a comprehensive one-stop packaging material procurement platform built upon more than 20 years of experience in the high-performance film extrusion industry. Driven by a commitment to resource integration and addressing stringent international compliance requirements, we offer tailor-made film formulations that satisfy the quality, safety, and logistical expectations of the Swiss market.
Quality control is at the core of our operations. Tianchen operates state-of-the-art laboratory testing facilities monitoring tensile strength, elongation at break, coefficient of friction (COF), and biaxial shrink ratios. Our experienced engineers constantly iterate resin formulations to provide custom options such as anti-static, UV-blocking, and high-puncture-resistance films.
From primary film extrusion to advanced multi-layer custom printing, we streamline the procurement cycle for Swiss distribution centers. We align with European environmental standards, providing REACH-compliant materials and ensuring that our plastic packaging can fit effortlessly into Switzerland's clean waste streams.
Sourcing PE shrink film from our advanced production facilities in China offers a distinct competitive advantage for Swiss business partners looking to optimize their total cost of ownership (TCO) without sacrificing quality.
We leverage premium metallocene LLDPE (m-LLDPE) blends. This allows us to down-gauge film thickness while maintaining the high containment force required for securing transit goods across high-elevation Swiss highways.
Our co-extrusion lines utilize automated thickness controllers. We achieve a nominal gauge variation of less than ±3%, ensuring no film tearing or uneven shrinking during thermal tunnel processing.
All packaging materials undergo migration testing and meet FDA and EU 10/2011 food-contact standards, satisfying Swiss food hygiene regulation SR 817.023.21.
Swiss mineral water bottlers and beverage distributors use our high-tensile LDPE shrink films for multi-packs of glass and PET bottles. Our film ensures absolute pack stability even under extreme temperature fluctuations experienced during Alpine transit.
Serving the Basel pharmaceutical cluster, our films provide clean, dust-free barriers for temperature-sensitive shipping units. The low-temperature shrink options prevent excessive heat transfer to internal pharmaceutical vials during shrink tunnel transit.
Swiss industrial machinery and watchmaker tooling parts require dustproof and moisture-proof packaging during shipping. We supply custom anti-static (ESD) and anti-corrosion (VCI) PE shrink films designed to protect high-value metal surfaces from oxidation and micro-particle contamination.
By integrating production control systems with optimized material formulations, Zhongshan Tianchen New Materials Co., Ltd. satisfies the complex requirements of modern logistics. Our production capabilities guarantee that whether you order standard heavy-duty PE shrink film or custom-printed heat-shrinkable plastics, you receive high-performance material optimized for automated machinery.
Every roll of shrink film undergoes comprehensive testing for puncture resistance, tear strength (Elmendorf), and optical haze properties. We maintain batch traceability numbers on all shipments, ensuring full visibility from raw polymer pellet to delivered cargo in Geneva, Basel, or Zurich ports.
We work in tandem with major logistics providers to deliver DDP or CIF shipments directly to Swiss warehouses. Our moisture-barrier inner packaging protects the shrink film rolls from sea-transit humidity, ensuring that the material arrives in pristine condition, ready for high-speed manufacturing lines.

For Swiss manufacturing plants using automated machines like Krones, Meypack, or Kallfass, adjusting shrink tunnel metrics is critical for consistent yield. PE shrink films behave dynamically under heat. Our tech team highlights three critical parameters to watch:
PE films require a hot-air tunnel temperature between 160°C and 190°C depending on thickness (gauge). If the air speed is too low, the film fails to reach its crystalline melting point, resulting in loose packaging or "dog ears". Too high, and the film burns through or weakens at the heat-seal lines.
Unlike POF (Polyolefin) which offers balanced shrinkage (often 60% in both directions), industrial LDPE shrink film is designed with differential shrink properties. Typically, it provides 50% to 70% shrinkage in the machine direction (MD) and 10% to 20% in the transverse direction (TD). This differential force is what secures heavy bottle bundles without distorting the retail tray below.
The stabilization of the package doesn't occur inside the hot tunnel; it happens immediately after exiting, during the cooling stage. Ambient cooling or forced air ventilation sets the crystalline structure of the PE polymer, locking in the tension. Our formulations include metallocene additives to enhance this cold holding force, preventing settling during subsequent conveyor transportation.
Technical and logistical solutions for procurement managers in Switzerland.
Yes. Our PE shrink films are made from 100% pure LDPE/LLDPE resins without toxic additives, making them fully compatible with standard polyethylene recycling streams (Category 4 LDPE). They align with the targets of the Swiss circular economy initiative and Swiss Recycling guidelines for municipal and industrial film recovery.
For standard ocean freight to European gateways (e.g., Rotterdam or Hamburg) with inland rail/truck delivery to Switzerland (such as Basel or Zurich), the transit time is typically 30 to 35 days. Accelerated rail shipping options via the Sino-Europe Express can shorten the transit window to approximately 18 to 22 days.
Yes. By utilizing advanced metallocene raw material blends, we can down-gauge standard 50-micron films to 38 or 40 microns while maintaining equivalent puncture resistance and holding force. This reduces overall plastic usage weight by up to 20%, directly lowering your Swiss VOC and CO2 packaging tax liability.
Absolutely. We provide high-definition flexographic printing up to 8 colors. We use low-migration, solvent-free inks that comply with Swiss Federal Food Safety and Veterinary Office (FSVO) requirements, allowing you to print brand logos, barcodes, or recycling instructions directly onto the transit wrap.
For standard transparent PE shrink films, our MOQ is typically 1 to 2 tons. For custom formulations (e.g., specific anti-static, anti-UV levels, or specialized custom dimensions/printing), the MOQ starts at 3 tons per run. We also offer smaller sample rolls for run testing on your packaging equipment before bulk commitment.
