LDPE

Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE)

Low-density polyethylene, or LDPE, is a highly flexible and lightweight thermoplastic polymer. Recognized for its excellent ductility and softness, LDPE is the go-to material for products that require flexibility and a high degree of formability. It has a lower density than HDPE, which contributes to its pliable nature.

LDPE is widely used in applications where transparency and a strong moisture barrier are needed, such as in food packaging films, cling wraps, and squeeze bottles. Its unique properties make it an excellent choice for a variety of products, from reusable bags and lids to agricultural films and wire insulation.

This material is also a safe and sustainable choice. LDPE is inert, non-leaching, and approved for use in food contact applications. Furthermore, it is a recyclable material, contributing to a circular economy and reducing environmental impact. Choosing LDPE means you're selecting a versatile, reliable, and eco-friendly material for your needs.

It is widely used in the production of:

• Bottles and tubing

• Pharmaceutical caps and closures

• Food packaging films and laminations

• Pipes and hoses

• Plastic bags, including shopping bags and trash liners
