What Is Contract Slitting?

Contract slitting is the process of using convertors to cut large rolls of film into smaller rolls. These smaller rolls can have a range of useful criteria, such as different material thickness, different diameters, and varying widths.

Many manufacturers are looking for rewind slitting, which is where we unroll the film and put it through a machine that uses knives to slit the film into different widths. Once the film is cut, we rewind it onto appropriate-sized rolls according to your desired specifications.

We can handle all sorts of contract slitting requirements and converting needs. Different manufacturers are looking for printed materials, clear materials, or web width and roll diameter changes. We can also work with lidding film and polyester shrink film.

Our various converters can provide your industry with exactly the right size plastic films for your needs. We serve any industry that utilizes plastic film as part of its manufacturing process. These include:

  • Agriculture
  • Pharmaceuticals
  • Automotive
  • Construction
  • Textiles
  • Food manufacturing
  • And more…

Because our employees have worked with so many different industries, we are typically familiar with the unique requirements of our clients. Even if we are new to your industry, you can depend on us to do our due diligence to ensure we meet all of your manufacturing standards and the standards of your specific industry.

The general process of slitting plastic films is easy to understand. We take a roll of plastic film and cut it to a different size. The specifics of this process can be more complicated, though. We have many different machines for different types of films and different conversion criteria. As described above, the most common is rewind slitting, but there are plenty of others.

The way we handle the needs of our clients is standardized, however. That’s because we want to ensure that all of our clients get exactly what they are looking for from our company. When you are searching for converters, you want to know that whoever you choose will deliver on your expectations. You can depend on us to do just that.

The process our employees use starts by understanding your needs. We have you complete one or more forms to get the exact specifications of your films, rolls, manufacturing needs, widths, lengths, thicknesses, and any other pertinent information. If there is anything we are unclear on, we will contact you for clarity before we start cutting. Our goal is to get you what you need as efficiently and cost-effectively as possible.
