Methods and systems for making a film made of dynamically vulcanized thermoplastic elastomeric material are provided herein. The subject methods and systems achieve dimensional stability of an elastic film by applying thermal treatment as part of the film making process and enhance the shrinkage of the film by intentionally with stretching the film while hot and freezing the film in the stretch. The systems and methods are useful in controlling shrinkage of DVA post film extrusion.

A cover film for the compressing of bales, characterized in that the cover film has been stretched and comprises an inner layer (1) and outer layers (2), wherein the inner layer (1) of the film comprises a copolymer of an ethylene and an -olefin, wherein the -olefin is selected from the group consisting of 1-butene, 1-hexene, 1-heptene, and 1-octene, and is used for copolymerization with the ethylene, wherein the copolymer is present in an amount of more than 5% by weight and less than 50% by weight of the inner layer (1) of the film, wherein the inner layer (1) further comprises a linear polyethylene, and wherein the outer layers (2) of the film fail to comprise any significant proportion of the copolymer.
