We met an interesting question that the client was asking if he had to shrink-wrap his games. We know some of games don’t have shrink-wrap outside instead of using stickers.
Some people worry the use of plastic to pollute the environment. Comparing to other plastic board game package, these thin film does is not a big deal. The current plastic film we used is called POF (Polyolefin Shrink Film). This is a kind of environment-friendly material, its non-toxic. Which has a wide range applications and also meet to standard of FDA, can be used for food packaging.
As a board game manufacturer, we highly suggest to do shrink wrapping board game package.
Firstly, the plastic film protect the box surface from dust and scratches, especially the rub in cartons during delivery. Second, it helps to keep the paper components keep tidy and neat, as this film can prevent water and humidity getting inside. The humidity would make board change shape. Thirdly: It means really new sets when retails put them on the shelves, consumers of course would like to buy a new one and enjoy the ceremony of opening!
