Wrapping, a protection technique often associated with the wintering of boats, is also used for a multitude of other applications. Ripack Supplies®, leader in heat-shrinkable films, offers you innovative products to protect your large goods against the rigours of winter and other bad weather.

Wrapping – what is it?

Wrapping involves wrapping objects in heat-shrink film, then heating the film so that it shrinks to form a protective shell. This method offers effective protection against external elements such as rain, snow, wind and even pests.

Ripack Supplies®: much more than boat winter storage

Although wrapping is commonly used to winterise boats, Ripack Supplies® extends its expertise to a variety of other areas requiring large-scale packaging. Whether for industrial equipment, leisure vehicles, garden furniture, building containment or aeronautics, our wrapping solutions are adapted to all your needs.

Ripack Supplies® products for successful wrapping

For effective wrapping, Ripack Supplies® offers a complete range of high-quality tools and materials:

  • Heat-shrinkable film : This film is designed to offer maximum protection against the elements and pests. Easily welded together, there is no limit to the size of the item to be protected.
  • Ripack® Shrink Gun : Our Ripack 3000+ shrink gun is essential for heating the film and shrinking it. It is powered by a propane (or bio-propane) gas cylinder, ensuring high efficiency and ease of use. Thanks to its extensions, you can reach different heights without having to climb a stepladder.
  • 750 Cylinder Trolley : A sturdy, practical trolley for transporting your propane gas cylinders. It’s designed to make it easy to move around the workplace and ensure optimum stability when using the shrink gun.
  • Strapping : To ensure that the film stays in place during transport or outdoor storage, a good strapping system makes it easier to apply the film and to shrink it by blocking it before it is heated and shrunk.

VARIOUS WRAPPING APPLICATIONS

Wrapping for industrial equipment

Large industrial equipment requires reliable protection from the elements. Ripack Supplies® provides wrapping solutions tailored to these specific needs, guaranteeing optimum, long-lasting protection.

Wrapping for building containment

Ripack Supplies® also offers wrapping solutions for building containment. Whether for renovation work, asbestos removal or other projects requiring temporary insulation, our heat-shrink film provides an effective barrier against external elements and contaminants.

Wrapping in aeronautics

In the aerospace industry, the protection of aircraft and spare parts is crucial. Ripack Supplies® offers wrapping solutions specially designed for this sector, guaranteeing optimum protection against damage, corrosion and contaminants during storage or transport.

Wrapping for vehicles

Wrapping is not just for boats. It’s also ideal for protecting vehicles such as motorhomes, caravans, trailers, quads, motorbikes, canoes, etc. Rather than cluttering up your garage, you can leave these vehicles outside, perfectly protected.

For larger items, Ripack Supplies® offers accessories such as air vents with fine grilles, which allow a gentle draught to prevent condensation while keeping out debris and pests.

Trust Ripack Supplies® to keep your belongings in top condition, whatever the conditions outside.
