3PL and order fulfilment

Brands have long trusted Merriwa with co-packaging and getting their product out the door for distribution. In our collaborations to reduce the steps between production and delivery, we have built our 3PL and pick and pack capability over the years.

Merriwa's location on the Hume corridor makes us an efficient logistics hub for your warehousing and distribution. Our facilities, infrastructure and workforce allow us to service small volumes as well as large, complex requirements. If you are exploring options, we would welcome a conversation.

What We Offer

Shrink sleeve labelling and heat shrink wrapping give brands a durable, full-coverage finish for individual containers, and a simple, cost-effective way to bundle multiple units into a single retail-ready pack.

Our team handles both the application and the heat-shrink process in-house, so your product arrives shrink-sealed and ready for distribution.

Why shrink sleeves

How it works

360-degree branding: full-body sleeves cover the entire container, giving more design real estate than a standard label. The plastic leaves an opening either side of the product, this remains after shrinking the plastic
Sleeve or wrap is applied: pre-printed shrink film is placed loosely around the container or bundle
Tamper evidence: shrink bands and full sleeves provide a visible seal that shows a product has not been opened
Heat tunnel shrink: the pack passes through a heat tunnel, shrinking the film tight against the product for a clean, wrinkle-free finish
Multipack flexibility: a fast, low-cost way to bundle products for promotions, gift sets or retail multi-buys without custom cartons
Quality check: every batch is checked as part of our standard QC process before packing out
Ready for despatch: shrink-sealed product is packed, labelled and prepared for pickup or onward logistics, including our own 3PL and pick-and-pack service.
"Even after 10 years of partnership, I continue to be impressed by Merriwa’s ability to deliver ongoing commercial excellence"
