After removing the shrinkwrap from a protected asset, many users don't know what to do with it. International premium shrinkwrap supplier, Dr. Shrink's REBAG® recycling program offers an economical and environmentally-friendly alternative to throwing shrinkwrap scraps or entire covers away.
The kit consists of a 30" x 50" clear bag with shrinkwrap removal directions printed on it, a closure device for the bag and a prepaid UPS return label, all neatly packaged in a hanging sack. Each kit holds approximately 600 sq. ft. of plastic.
To use REBAG®, owners simply cut off the asset's cover above the perimeter band, after removing any zipper access doors, strapping and vents, and stuff it into the bag. Then, it is closed with the provided cable tie and the self-adhesive return label can be attached. The full REBAG® can be picked up by UPS or dropped off at a UPS service center.
