PE (Polyethylene)

Polyethylene, particularly LDPE (Low-Density Polyethylene) and LLDPE (Linear LowDensity Polyethylene), is widely used for flexible packaging due to its cost-effectiveness and ease of processing. It's commonly used for packaging food, industrial goods, and consumer products.

  • Flexible and lightweight
  • Good moisture resistance
  • Economical for mass production
  • Easy to seal and laminate
  • Widely recyclable

• Food packaging (bread bags, snack bags) • Stretch films • Heavy-duty trash bags • Industrial and consumer goods packaging
