recycled polyethylene

PLUX-HDPE

PLUX-HDPE is Representing the largest portion of the polyethylene applications, HDPE offers excellent impact resistance, light weight, low moisture absorption, and high tensile strength.

HDPE is also non-toxic and non-staining and meets FDA and USDA certification for food processing.

High Density Polyethylene, also referred to as HDPE is manufactured from the semi-crystalline polyethylene (PE) family. HDPE is available in various grades depending on the application requirements.

High-density polyethylene (HDPE) or polyethylene high-density (PEHD)

is a polyethylene thermoplastic made from petroleum. It takes 1.75 kilograms of petroleum (in terms of energy and raw materials) to make one kilogram of HDPE. HDPE is commonly recycled, the global HDPE market reached a volume of more than 30 million tons.
