Ulpolen® 500
- Chemical Family
- PolyethylenesPolyolefins
Ulpolen® 500 offers increased wear resistance and impact strength compared to HDPE. It is extremely strong, has excellent resistance to chemicals and low temperatures and has very low moisture absorption. Ulpolen®PE300-HDPE (high-density polyethylene) 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.
