About this product

This premium-grade flame retardant LDPE shrink wrap film is 250 microns thick, measuring 8m wide and 50m long. The addition of a flame retardant additive results in a milky, translucent appearance – please note that this is not a clear or transparent film.

  • Width: 8m
  • Length: 50m
  • Thickness: 250 micron
  • Appearance: Translucent / semi-opaque, due to flame retardant additive
  • Material: LDPE, flame retardant

Important Note:
Because this film does not contain white coloring, the flame retardant additive gives it a milky / translucent look. It is not suitable if you require a fully clear or transparent film.

  1. Prepare the item or structure: clean, dry, and pad or tape over sharp edges and corners that could puncture the film.

  2. Unroll and position the film, cutting sheets to allow an overlap of 20–30 cm wherever two sheets will be joined.

  3. Heat-weld each seam: give a short 2–3 second burst of heat to a small area of the overlap, then pat the layers together. Keep the heat on the double thickness.

  4. Shrink the film: keep the heat gun moving at all times and 'hit it hard and move on'. Turn the gun down quickly as you work upwards — heat rises.

  5. Let the film cool before judging wrinkles — it keeps shrinking for several minutes. Finish weld edges and repairs with shrink wrap tape, and fit vents and access doors as needed.

The natural, translucent finish is a result of the flame retardant additive used in this grade.

Keep rolls in their original packaging, under cover, out of direct sunlight and away from sources of ignition, at between +5°C and +40°C.

Yes. Single rolls are available at any time, and the per-roll price falls as you move towards a full pallet — see the volume pricing table above.

The film is LDPE (recycling code 04) and recyclable when clean and free of tape and contamination. Flame-retardant film is recyclable LDPE in principle, but check with your recycler first. See our Removal & Recycling guide.

200 micron suits machinery, equipment and boats in storage and transport. 250 micron adds puncture and tear resistance for larger items and loads travelling by road or sea. Scaffold encapsulation uses 300 micron. If you're unsure, call us on 01477 532222 with the job details.
