Breaks down in years
Designed to start breaking down in landfill conditions within a few years instead of centuries. It breaks down through biological action, rather than turning into microplastic fragments.
New in Kelowna · Biodegradable Shrink Wrap
StormShield Solutions is Kelowna's first company to offer biodegradable shrink wrap for boats, RVs, and equipment. Same strong protection. No impact on the environment.
Now booking biodegradable shrink wrap for the 2026 season.
Why biodegradable shrink wrap?
Biodegradable shrink wrap is a high-performance film that protects your assets just like traditional wrap, but is engineered to break down much faster in the landfill. Instead of sitting for hundreds of years, it starts to biodegrade in a matter of years under the right conditions, helping reduce long-term plastic waste from winter storage and construction projects.
Designed to start breaking down in landfill conditions within a few years instead of centuries. It breaks down through biological action, rather than turning into microplastic fragments.
Verified through lab testing and documented to ASTM E84 Class A standards. Specs and test info are available on request.
Suitable for marine, residential, and commercial projects where clients care about both protection and environmental responsibility.
Applied with the same tools and process as standard shrink wrap, so StormShield can offer biodegradable options without slowing down your project.
How it compares
Both options protect your assets from weather and transport. The key difference is what happens after the wrap is removed. Conventional plastic can sit in the landfill for decades. Biodegradable shrink wrap is engineered to start breaking down much sooner under the right conditions, helping reduce long-term plastic waste.
*Based on manufacturer testing under specific landfill conditions. Actual performance can vary depending on environment and disposal practices.
Why this matters
Biodegradable film helps reduce long-term plastic waste without changing the protection your project needs.
Most plastic ends up landfilled, burned, or leaked. End-of-life options matter.
Plastic production is massive, and a lot of it is used once and tossed.
Reducing avoidable waste helps protect lakes, rivers, and shorelines.
Where it is used
StormShield can use biodegradable wrap on the same types of projects you already trust us with. From boats and RVs to scaffolding and job sites, you get the same protection with a cleaner environmental footprint.
Winter storage for boats, personal watercraft, and marine equipment with a wrap that is safer for the environment once it reaches the landfill.
Coverage for RVs, trailers, and vehicles during storage or transport. Protects finishes and hardware while reducing long term plastic waste.
Weather protection for scaffolding, machinery, and job sites that keeps work moving while supporting more sustainable project practices.
Our commitment
StormShield Solutions is the first shrink wrap company in Kelowna to offer a landfill biodegradable wrap option for winter storage and job sites. Traditional shrink wrap can sit in landfills for decades. This biodegradable film is designed to break down through microbial action in landfill conditions, so it does not leave microplastics behind.
You still get the same clean install and tight protection StormShield is known for. The difference is what happens after disposal. If your project has compliance needs, ask about specifications and available ratings.
Request a quote and we will recommend standard or biodegradable wrap based on your project and any requirements.

Questions about biodegradable wrap
A quick FAQ to answer the most common questions about how biodegradable shrink wrap works, how long it lasts, and when it makes sense for your project.
Yes. Biodegradable shrink wrap is designed to perform like traditional shrink wrap while it is in use. It still shrinks tight around the project, resists wind and weather, and protects your boat, RV, or job site during the season.
Our biodegradable shrink wrap is specially engineered to start breaking into zero microplastics and waste within a 5 year period. Exact timing may vary based on environmental conditions.
Biodegradable shrink wrap is designed to be used on marine projects, just like standard wrap. It is intended to end up in a proper landfill or waste stream after removal, not left in the water, so it is still important to dispose of it correctly.
Biodegradable materials are typically a premium option compared to standard wrap. When you request a quote, StormShield can price both options so you can see the difference and choose what is best for your project and values.
In most cases, yes. Biodegradable wrap can be used on boats, RVs, trailers, machinery, and many types of construction or industrial projects. StormShield will confirm if it is a good fit when you tell us what you need wrapped.
After the wrap is removed, it should be sent into the normal solid waste stream so it can sit in landfill conditions where it is designed to begin breaking down. StormShield can advise on disposal options when your project is scheduled.
