Shrink Sleeve Neck Bands

Consumable product protection and security are of the utmost importance to manufacturers. To ensure consumers are buying safe products that haven’t been tampered with, these manufacturers often turn toward shrink sleeve neck bands  (also referred to as heat shrink neck bands).

Shrink Sleeve neck bands are applied around the lid or cap of a product and shrunk immobilizing the cap and protecting the product against being opened.

Neck bands are favored by manufacturers as they are:

  • cost-effective to implement,
  • unable to be tampered with discreetly,
  • easy for the consumer to remove,
  • and don’t hinder the appearance of the product

Here at Global Pak, we offer a wide array of these tamper-evident neck bands in clear, color, standard print (“Sealed for your Protection”), and custom printed (clear and color) 

PVC film. Options for our neck bands include pull tabs and perforations: horizontal, vertical (single or double). They can be cut to size or supplied on rolls.

Cost-Effective

Heat Shrink Neck Bands are the most affordable option available for tamper-evident protection. You don’t even need to buy extensive equipment to apply them (your employees can be trained on how to do so).

Unable To Be Tampered With Discreetly

Heat Shrink Neck Bands cannot be tampered with discreetly; consumers can easily tell if they have been torn or removed and they cannot be easily reapplied.

Easy For The Consumer To Remove

However, once a product has been purchased, a consumer can easily remove the heat shrink neck band by cutting the plastic. (For even easier removal, perforation can be added to the band.)

Don’t Hinder The Appearance Of The Product

Heat Shrink Neck Bands come in a variety of colors and can even be custom printed to match whatever packaging they are accompanying.

Heat Shrink Neck Bands are manually applied around the neck, cap, or cover lid on a container. Heat is applied using a heat gun or heat tunnel until the band fits snug around the container.

Heat Shrink Neck Bands are often found of products such as: sauces, dressings, condiments, prescription drugs, and many others.

Yes, of course! Though the most common application, shrink sleeve neck bands are not only applicable to consumable product packaging. With neck bands, anything with a near cylindrical lid can be secured.
