ABSTRACT:
A method and material for shrink wrapping articles includes wrapping the article with a shrink wrapping material having a shrink/stretch film outer layer and an inner layer of a woven fabric. The shrink/stretch film responds to heat by shrinking around the article being wrapped, while the woven fabric, which does not shrink or shrinks very little, forms pockets which bunch and gather up as shrinking takes place, thereby forming a cushion between the film and the object being wrapped. The woven fabric acts as a reenforcement for the film, both before and after shrinking, thus protecting the article wrapped from a hurled object and other similar hazards, and also protecting the article from direct engagement from the shrink/stretch film, which is relatively abrasive.
