Where we’ve come from
TUFWRAP was formed in 2010 by entrepreneur Simon Archdale. With a background in the marine industry, Simon saw an opportunity in preservation wraps and winterisation packages for marine vessels. His interest in the evolution of shrink wrapping technologies led him into adjacent areas of protection and containment. This thirst for innovation is ingrained in the TUFWRAP DNA. Following Simon’s lead, the team relentlessly explore new products and processes to add to the company’s armoury.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is industrial shrink wrapping?
Shrink wrap is a durable plastic sheeting material that shrinks when heated to a specific temperature. It is used on industrial projects to protect and contain assets for transportation or storage. TUFWRAP’s shrink wrap is flame retardant, UV resistant, and wind resistant at up to 170km/h and can be tailored to fit over any object, no matter the size or shape.
What is industrial shrink wrapping used for?
Industrial shrink wrapping contains and protects products during transportation and storage. It is used in many applications, and various wrap types and materials to suit each purpose. TUFWRAP’s shrink wrap systems can be tailored to fit any object, regardless of size or shape.
Shrink wrapping projects we frequently work on include:
- Boat winterisation
- Scaffold protection
- Enclosure of pallets
- Wrapping large or oddly shaped products

What are the benefits of shrink wrapping?
Shrink wrap is quick, easy and versatile in application. It is a popular containment and preservation method across many industries and has numerous safety and security features. Some of the benefits of a TUFWRAP shrink wrapping system include the following:
- Protection – When shrink wrap is heat-sealed, it protects the asset from damage caused by dirt, dust or moisture during transportation across land or sea.
- Preservation – Shrink wrap can create a completely controlled and sealed environment around the asset. This preservation system assists with long or short-term storage of items and assures the integrity of the asset for years to come.
- Weather-proofing – Ward-off bad weather conditions on a job site or quickly make good on a partial build with a shrink wrap coating. Our systems cover exposed areas and protect them from rain, wind or excessive heat.
- Cost-effective – Shrink wrapping is a simple and affordable choice when transporting or storing products. Effectively, it bundles products together and contains bulky items to help minimise space and keep the item clean and uncontaminated.
- Advertising – The taught drum-like finish of shrink wrapping provides the perfect advertising space for your business. It allows you to print large-scale branding for maximum logo exposure for the duration of your project.
- Versatility – Our solutions can be tailor-made to suit the specifications of each project. We cut and weld on-site and can apply our wrap in difficult-to-access locations and on odd shapes. No restriction on size, and there’s no item too big or small. TUFWRAP has solutions that will fit.
- Tamper-proof – The sealed finish of a shrink wrap system protects your asset from harm and keeps it safe and contained. The opaque coating will keep your job under wraps and away from prying eyes.
How is shrink wrapping applied?
When heat is applied to shrink wrap material, it shrinks down to form a tight seal around the product. This tough plastic film conforms to the object’s shape and protects it from any potential damage from outside environmental factors. Depending on the object’s size, shape and location, a heat gun or alternative application method may be used.
Is shrink wrap eco-friendly?
Our products are made from recyclable material. They are reusable and free from outgassing chemicals. By using shrink wrap for your project, you’ll manage and minimise environmental impact from construction sites, mitigate worksite fallout, and stop overspray into oceans and ecosystems.
Can shrink wrap be recycled?
Yes, all our shrink-wrap products are recyclable after use.
Do you offer customised solutions?
We understand there’s no one-size-fits-all solution for every industry’s preservation, transportation and containment needs. Each project we work on has its own challenges and requires a specific resolution. We’re constantly looking for new and improved technologies to exceed expectations and add value for our clients. We know our products inside-out and can customise them to suit your needs. If we don’t have a solution, we’ll create one!
