PVC Cling Film Jumbo Rolls: Industrial Specifications & Wholesale Supply from China (2026)

SUNWRAP Export Team ·

Importers and food packaging distributors sourcing PVC cling film in bulk need more than retail roll specs — they need jumbo roll dimensions, rewinding compatibility, certification data, and factory pricing tiers. This guide covers everything procurement teams need to specify a jumbo roll order correctly.

What Is a Cling Film Jumbo Roll?

A cling film jumbo roll (also called a mother roll or master roll) is an uncut industrial-format reel produced directly on the blown or cast film line. Typical dimensions for export supply:

ParameterStandard RangeMost Common Export Spec
Width250mm – 500mm300mm, 450mm
Length4,000m – 8,000m6,000m
Core ID75mm (3”) or 150mm (6”)75mm
Gauge8 – 18 micron10–12 micron (retail), 15–18 (industrial)
Weight per reel8 – 28 kg12–18 kg

Distributors and converters purchase jumbo rolls for three purposes: rewinding into retail-sized rolls (30cm × 30m), slitting to custom widths for portion-control packaging lines, or supplying directly to food-service operations with automatic film wrappers.

Blown vs Cast PVC: Which Grade to Specify

Blown PVC cling film is extruded through an annular die and inflated before winding. Biaxial orientation from blowing gives higher cling force — typically 18–23 g/cm² in factory tests — and better puncture resistance. Preferred for red-meat and fresh produce wrap where seal integrity is critical.

Cast PVC cling film is extruded through a flat die onto a chilled roll. Excellent optical clarity (haze <5%) and consistent gauge (±1.5 micron). Cling force is typically 12–16 g/cm². Preferred for portion control packaging, deli counters, and display applications.

Both grades can be formulated to meet EU Regulation 10/2011 SML requirements. Specify your destination market when placing an order.

Wholesale Pricing Tiers

Order VolumeIndicative EXW Price (USD/kg)
5–9 MT (trial order)$2.40 – $2.70
10–29 MT$2.10 – $2.40

Prices subject to PVC resin market. Request a formal quote for current pricing.

A 20’ FCL carries approximately 14–16 MT of jumbo rolls. For monthly volumes of 30+ MT, a 40’HQ container (28–30 MT) reduces logistics cost. Mixed SKU loading available.

Quality Control

Every reel passes a 7-point inspection: gauge uniformity (10-point micrometer, ±1.5 micron), cling force (ASTM D3330, min 12 g/cm²), optical haze (ASTM D1003, max 8%), core straightness (runout <1.5mm), winding tension, migration test alignment, and reel weight/length verification.

Certificate of Analysis issued with each shipment. Third-party inspection (SGS, Bureau Veritas, Intertek) available at buyer’s cost.

How to Order

  1. Send specification: width, gauge, cling type (blown/cast), colour, core ID, destination market, target monthly volume
  2. Receive quotation within 24 hours
  3. Order sample reel (500m, DHL) for line trial — credited against first bulk order
  4. Approve FAI report → bulk production → pre-shipment inspection
  5. Standard terms FOB Ningbo or Yiwu. CIF/DDP available.

Frequently Asked Questions

What standard widths do PVC cling film jumbo rolls come in?+

The most common industrial widths are 300mm and 450mm, though we also supply 250mm, 350mm, 400mm and custom widths up to 500mm. The 300×6,000m and 450×6,000m formats are the food industry standard for rewinding into retail rolls on automatic wrapping lines.

What is the difference between blown and cast PVC cling film for jumbo rolls?+

Blown PVC has higher cling force (18–23 g/cm²) and better puncture resistance — preferred for meat and produce wrapping. Cast PVC offers better optical clarity and consistent gauge (±2%), making it preferred for portion-controlled packaging and display counters. Both are food-contact certified under FDA 21 CFR 177.1210 and EU Regulation 10/2011.

What is the minimum order quantity for jumbo roll supply?+

Standard MOQ is 5 metric tons (approximately one 20' FCL). For distributors ordering regular monthly volumes, we offer rolling contracts with 3-ton minimum per shipment. Sample reels (500m) are available before bulk order for line trial and quality approval.

Can you produce custom colours such as purple or blue PVC jumbo rolls?+

Yes. Coloured PVC cling film — including purple, blue, green, yellow, and red — is available from 5 tonnes per colour per order. Colour pigments are food-contact approved. Custom print is available from 10 tonnes.

What gauges are available and how is thickness controlled?+

Standard gauges are 8, 10, 12, 15, and 18 micron. We measure gauge using a digital micrometer across 10 points per reel, with a tolerance of ±1.5 micron. The 10–12 micron range is standard for retail rewinding; 15–18 micron for heavy industrial or portion-pack applications.
