LDPE Bags

LDPE (Low-Density Polyethylene) bags are a very common type of plastic bag, and they have several key characteristics:

• Flexibility and Softness:
  • LDPE is known for its high flexibility, making these bags pliable and easy to handle.
  • They have a softer, more supple feel compared to other plastics like HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene).
• Clarity and Transparency:
  • LDPE bags often have good clarity, allowing the contents of the bag to be easily seen.
• Moisture Barrier:
  • They provide a good barrier against moisture, which is useful for packaging various products.
• Durability and Strength:
  • While not as rigid as HDPE, LDPE still offers decent strength and durability for many applications.
  • It also has good impact strength.
• Heat Sealing:
  • LDPE is easily heat-sealed, making it suitable for various packaging applications.
• Common Uses:
  • LDPE bags are widely used for:
    • Food packaging
    • Garbage bags
    • Produce bags
    • Retail carry bags
    • Industrial packaging.
    • clean room applications.
• Recyclability:
  • LDPE is recyclable, although the availability of recycling programs for plastic bags can vary.
• Chemical Resistance:
  • LDPE also has good chemical resistance.
