Ripack Supplies presents itself as a solution for protecting, wrapping and containing large volumes and buildings thanks to a heat-shrink system.
These films are designed for different uses, such as:
\u2022 protecting a yacht over the winter,
\u2022 protecting aircraft from bad weather,
\u2022 covering large industrial equipment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In all these cases, the heat-shrink cover creates a protective envelope around whatever you want to secure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Winter storage: effectively protecting boats<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Ripack Supplies offers solutions specifically designed for winter storage and transport of boats. The shrink film acts like a second skin: the cocoon created forms a sealed bubble that protects the boat during transport or winter lay-up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This cocoon provides protection against:
\u2022 climatic aggressions (wind, snow, rain),
\u2022 sun damage to the hull and upholstery, thanks to the UV-resistant treatment of the films used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The films used for winter storage or boat protection are described as a protective envelope that limits corrosion, protects paintwork and sensitive surfaces, and reduces cleaning operations before putting the boat back into service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aircraft wrapping: protecting large sensitive volumes<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Ripack Supplies heat-shrink covers are particularly well-suited to wrapping large, sensitive volumes such as aircraft. They can, for example:
\u2022 protect an aircraft parked outside during a period of immobilisation,
\u2022 secure parts of an aircraft during exceptional transport,
\u2022 cover certain areas of the aircraft over the long term during maintenance or refurbishment work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to bi-axial shrinkage, the film tightens in both directions and closely follows the contours of the fuselage to create a genuine cocoon around the aircraft. This cocoon forms a continuous envelope that helps keep the aircraft protected from the weather, dust and dirt throughout the storage or intervention period.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Long-term protection for large volumes and oversized products<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Ripack Supplies positions itself as a specialist in large-format and high-volume packaging.
Heat-shrink films make it possible to protect and wrap oversized products effectively. They offer:
\u2022 perfect watertightness,
\u2022 a reduction in the risk of damage during storage or transport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In practical terms, the films are available in large widths, from 4 to 15 metres, with thicknesses from 180 to 210 microns depending on the width, in order to cover large volumes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Accessories: letting the boat or equipment breathe<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

For long-term storage under film, Ripack Supplies offers self-adhesive ventilation grills and zip doors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The aim is to:
\u2022 allow air renewal under the film,
\u2022 avoid bad odours, humidity and mould,
\u2022 ensure ventilation of the boat and equipment under shrink protection, particularly during long-term storage,
\u2022 make access to the equipment easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In summary: when should you use a Ripack Supplies heat-shrink cover<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

According to the official documentation, Ripack Supplies heat-shrink covers are particularly recommended when you need to:
\u2022 protect a boat during transport or winter storage,
\u2022 encapsulate a building or roof under construction,
\u2022 cover large industrial equipment or oversized products,
\u2022 ensure watertightness and limit damage,
\u2022 manage long-term storage with an appropriate ventilation system.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
