Machine is specially engineered for industries that require premium-quality shrink finishing, especially on PVC, PET-G, OPS sleeves, bottle labels, cosmetic jars, food containers, and pharma bottles.
A Steam Heat Shrink Tunnel Machine is specially engineered for industries that require premium-quality shrink finishing, especially on PVC, PET-G, OPS sleeves, bottle labels, cosmetic jars, food containers, and pharma bottles. Unlike electric tunnels, steam-based shrink tunnels deliver uniform 360° shrinkage, superior clarity, smooth label appearance, and distortion-free results. With adjustable steam zones, stainless-steel chambers, and accurate pressure control, this system provides unmatched performance for brands that need perfect shelf-ready packaging. AmarPack’s steam shrink tunnels are designed for high-speed production, continuous operation, and international manufacturing standards, making them ideal for FMCG, beverages, cosmetics, chemicals, agro, and export packaging requirements.
Our machine uses a multi-zone steam jet arrangement to ensure uniform heat flow on all sides of the product. Adjustable nozzles and directional control let operators fine-tune shrink quality based on bottle shape, sleeve thickness, and production speed.
The tunnel body is built from SS 304 food-grade stainless steel, making it corrosion-resistant and ideal for beverage, pharma, and food industries. The insulated chamber maintains heat efficiently, reducing steam loss and improving consistency.
You can control top, bottom, and side steam zones independently. This enables perfect shrinking at even the most challenging areas like bottle shoulders, necks, and rounded edges.
Engineered with optimized flow control valves, our tunnel reduces steam usage by up to 30–40% compared to traditional systems—significantly lowering operating costs.
The Steam Heat Shrink Tunnel Machine integrates smoothly with:
Automatic sleeve applicators
Bottle filling lines
Labeling lines
Packaging conveyors
Supports speed ranges from 60 BPM to 300 BPM based on model selection.
Includes:
Automatic drain system
Thermal overload protection
Steam pressure regulators
Safety interlocks
Optional PLC + HMI panel for automation

The Steam Heat Shrink Tunnel Machine delivers significant advantages over conventional hot-air shrink tunnels. Because steam heats more uniformly and naturally penetrates the sleeve film, customers experience a superior shrinking outcome, especially on high-quality PET-G labels. The machine ensures perfectly smooth shrinkage without wrinkles, bubbles, or burn marks, resulting in a premium-grade packaging appearance. Its multi-zone steam control allows operators to fine-tune shrinking for different bottle shapes, whether flat, round, oval, or contoured.
From an operational standpoint, the steam tunnel machine reduces wastage, enhances label clarity, and maintains consistent shrinking even at high speeds. The stainless-steel construction offers long life, rust resistance, and hygiene compliance, making it ideal for food, pharma, and beverage industries. Additionally, its energy-efficient insulation minimizes heat loss, leading to lower running costs compared to traditional systems. The machine also integrates easily with automatic sleeve applicators, conveyors, and packaging lines, ensuring seamless scalability for expanding production needs.
Steam Heat Shrink Tunnel Machines are widely used in industries where high-quality sleeve shrinking and flawless visual presentation are essential. They are commonly installed in beverage plants for shrinking labels on water bottles, juice bottles, soft drinks, energy drinks, and flavored beverages. The uniform steam heat ensures that the labels fit perfectly across the entire bottle surface, enhancing brand visibility on shelves.
In the pharmaceutical sector, these machines shrink tamper-evident neck bands on syrup bottles, tablet containers, nutraceutical jars, and medical bottles — ensuring proper sealing and safety compliance. The cosmetic and personal care industry uses steam tunnels for stunning packaging of shampoo bottles, lotion containers, essential oil bottles, and custom-shaped cosmetic jars, where precision shrinking is crucial to maintain aesthetics.
The food industry also benefits significantly, using steam tunnels for shrink labeling on spice jars, sauce bottles, honey jars, coffee containers, and ready-to-eat packaging. Chemical and household product manufacturers adopt steam tunnels for chemical bottles, detergents, and industrial liquids where durable, tamper-proof shrink sleeves are needed. Overall, steam shrink tunnels are the preferred choice for any brand aiming for premium packaging quality and high-speed production efficiency.
