Enquiry preparation

Prepare the evidence Lancing needs to review the application

A complete brief reduces assumptions and allows machinery, film, tunnel, integration and trial requirements to be considered together. Do not send confidential or hazardous samples until handling has been agreed.

Product and finished pack

Attach dimensions, complete weight, photographs, group pattern and an approved finished pack or annotated image. Include the smallest, largest, heaviest, least stable and most heat-sensitive variants.

Film and output

Provide the production reel label and supplier data, plus the required sustained number of accepted packs over time. State shift pattern, batch size, production gaps and changeover frequency.

Site and line interfaces

Include available footprint, access, services, conveyor height/direction, upstream equipment, downstream cooling and the next handling operation. A simple marked-up layout is useful where space is constrained.

Files and details that support a faster technical review

  • Product drawings or measured dimensions and representative photographs.
  • Production film label, code, material, gauge, width or layflat and reel size.
  • Approved pack or clear pass/fail appearance and handling criteria.
  • Required sustained output, batch/shift pattern and product-change frequency.
  • Upstream and downstream equipment with conveyor height and direction.
  • Site access, services, environment, ventilation and working clearances.
  • Any run video showing current presentation or a recurring pack defect.
  • Named technical contact for sample, trial and acceptance questions.

Identify the wrapping task before selecting a machine category

State whether you need an individual wrap, a multipack, a label sleeve or a neck-band application, and attach the product dimensions and photographs. Describe the intended result and any product or packaging constraints that should guide the first discussion.

If film or equipment is already selected, provide its exact reference and explain what is confirmed. Mark the remaining choices as open so a preliminary enquiry can lead to an appropriate sample assessment or proposal.

Task definition
Explain what the finished wrap must achieve and how the pack will be handled afterward.
Evidence request
Say whether you need a machine comparison, a film discussion or a defined trial scope.

What if I am unsure which shrink-wrapping route applies?

Describe the product, desired pack and current process. Ask for the proposed route to be explained against that requirement and for the next sample or information needed to assess it.
