High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) sheet is robust against impact and abrasion-resistant, exhibiting a low coefficient of friction. The material is also moisture, stain, and odor resistant, and is FDA approved for use in the food processing industry (mainly for cutting boards). The material's durability makes it a perfect match for various applications, including water tanks, chute linings, bottle/bottle cap production, and numerous other industrial uses. Borated HDPE offers radiation protection in nuclear facility applications.
High-density Polyethylene, also known as HDPE, is made from a chain of ethylene molecules (the poly part of polyethylene) and is famous for its lightweight and high durability.
The preference for HDPE sheets is increasing significantly in the market today, as they can reduce the material used for producing and packaging products due to their strength and weight.
It is also available at Tap Plastics in sheet form with either a smooth or textured surface. The textured surface is also known as a cutting board. Both smooth and textured surfaces are FDA-approved for use in food contact applications.
