POLYETHYLENE (PE-HMW) 500 / (PE-UHMW) 1000

Polyethylene 500, provides a good combination of rigidity, toughness and strength, together with a good resistance to wear and abrasion, as well as to be easily welded. Its main use is in the food industry, as well as all types of mechanical applications, chemical and electrical.

Polyethylene 1000, combines excellent wear resistance and abrasion resistance, with an excellent impact resistance even at low temperatures. It is mainly applied in machinery bottling, canning and packaging, chemical, cryogenic equipment, textiles and transport equipment and general storage.

The main colors are white polyethylene, black and green. There is a possibility to supply other colors on request.
