LOW DENSITY
POLYETHYLENE (LDPE)
Like high density polyethylene, LDPE offers great chemical resistance and good non-stick properties.
It has the particularity of being more flexible which allows it to be very durable because it is highly impact resistant. We favour low-density polyethylene for bowls, tubs, buckets, etc.
Like all the plastics we use in our containers, low-density polyethylene is a food-grade, odourless, and 100% recyclable thermoplastic polymer.
| Abbreviation | Density | Temperature °C | Elasticity module | Shore D Hardness |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| LDPE | 0,91-0,93 g/cm3 | -15°C<<+60°C | 200-300 MPa | 40-47 |
