New Fast Wrap franchise offers mobile shrink wrapping service to construction, agriculture and disaster-relief industries in Jackson, Miss. and the surrounding region

 Kris New, business manager for the new Fast Wrap franchise in Jackson, Miss., sees endless possibilities for his company’s mobile shrink wrapping service. They just need to educate those in the construction, agriculture, recreation and disaster response industries about the potential of Fast Wrap’s shrink-to-fit film to save time and money when it comes to protecting structures and equipment from the elements.

That education process will likely start right in Jackson, where developers are trying to encourage people to live and shop downtown again by building new apartments and shopping centers as well as renovating existing structures with new amenities. Fast Wrap’s shrink wrap – which can be applied to structures of any size and shape – is the perfect way to protect buildings under construction from the sun, rain and wind, allowing for construction to continue year-round and eliminating damage done by the elements during construction delays.

New also expects Fast Wrap’s asset protection service will find customers in the agriculture industry in the Mississippi Delta region, as farmers learn how shrink wrapping irrigation motors, combine headers and even entire combines and planters can protect these valuable pieces of equipment from the elements without the need for indoor storage.

“Most farmers have limited shed space and they can only fit so much equipment under it, while the rest of their equipment sits outside. But if they could shrink wrap some of their equipment and leave it outside, that would free up storage space for other things,” New said. “And with irrigation motors, farmers could just shrink wrap them and leave them right there in the field, so that all they have to do when it’s time to use them again is to cut the wrap off them and they’re ready to go.”

Being near the Gulf Coast also means that come hurricane season, insurance companies and homeowners will need a fast and efficient way to protect damaged homes after a storm. In these instances, Fast Wrap’s proprietary anti-microbial “Bio-Shrink” film can be secured to a roof to prevent further water intrusion without the use of hundreds of nails like a blue tarp would require, thus preventing the collateral damage of nail holes to an already damaged roof while at the same time preventing mold, mildew and algae growth.

Finally, the proximity of the Ross R. Barnett Reservoir means that there are plenty of boat, houseboat and jet ski owners who can now safely store their shrink-wrapped watercraft outside during the winter months without worrying about water damage or pest intrusion.

Fast Wrap Jackson is located at 848 Foley Street in Jackson, Miss. For more information about their mobile shrink wrapping service, please call (601) 988-1231.
