Frequently Asked Questions: Heat Shrink Wrap Services
What is the difference between standard shrink wrap and a Vapor Barrier?
Standard shrink wrap sheds water and contains the item. A Vapor Barrier is a specialized, heat-sealed material used inside or alongside the wrap to prevent moisture and oxygen from reaching metal surfaces. This is critical for preventing rust (corrosion) on industrial machinery during ocean transport or long-term storage.
Why should I choose professional heat shrink wrapping instead of a standard tarp?
Our heat-welded, custom barrier uses heavy-duty, marine-grade film. Unlike tarps that pool and tear, this drum-tight seal eliminates abrasion and provides a true shield against the elements.
Do you offer mobile, on-site shrink wrapping services?
Yes. Our mobile unit provides on-site shrink wrapping service in Greater Pittsburgh for large structures across Western PA, Eastern OH, and Northern WV. [Schedule your on-site service now.]
