Abstract

The present invention relates to a heat shrinkable polyester film. The present invention also relates to a heat shrinkable polyester tube obtained from the heat shrinkable polyester film, a production method thereof, a label using this tube and a container wearing this label. The heat shrinkable polyester film of the present invention has suitable heat shrinkable properties, superior printing property and adhesion property with a solvent. When it is used for packaging (e.g., covering, bundling and the like), the film shows superior appearance and good mountability. Moreover, the heat shrinkable polyester film of the present invention has a small apparent specific gravity and is easily collected separately from a bottle when it is used as a label of a bottle (such as PET bottle).
