Typical Applications

• Chemical Packaging: PE300 sheet is ideal for chemical packaging applications due to its exceptional resistance to a wide range of chemicals, including corrosive substances.
• Food Processing: PE300 sheet is widely used in food processing for its non-reactive, non-toxic properties, making it suitable for environments where hygiene and easy cleaning are essential.
• Automotive: PE300 sheet is commonly used in automotive applications, such as interior components and protective parts, due to its durability, low friction, and resistance to wear and tear.
• Leisure: Ideal for leisure applications, PE300 sheet is used in the construction of playground equipment, recreational vehicles, and other outdoor products, thanks to its strength and resistance to the elements.
• Food Industry (Tank Fabrications): PE300 sheet is commonly employed in the fabrication of tanks in the food industry, offering a safe, durable, and easy-to-maintain material for storing liquids and food products.
• Boat Construction: PE300 sheet is perfect for boat construction, providing resistance to saltwater, UV rays, and physical impacts, ensuring the longevity and durability of marine vessels.
• Medical Applications: In the medical field, PE300 sheet is used for equipment and devices due to its excellent chemical resistance, hygienic properties, and safety for sensitive environments.
• Water Pumps: PE300 sheet is ideal for water pump components, offering strength and resistance to wear in high-pressure environments, ensuring long-lasting performance.
• Landfill Applications: PE300 sheet is employed in landfill applications, providing resistance to harsh chemicals and environmental conditions, ensuring reliable performance over extended periods.

Colour Application and Uses

• Natural PE300 Sheet: Offers excellent chemical resistance and impact strength, making it ideal for general engineering, food processing, and industrial applications where durability and performance are critical.
• Black PE300 Sheet: Enhanced with additional UV resistance, making it well-suited for outdoor applications or environments exposed to sunlight, such as boat construction and outdoor tanks, ensuring long-lasting performance and reduced degradation from UV rays.

Specific gravity 0.95 

With a specific gravity of 0.95, PE300 is lighter than water, which enhances its buoyancy and makes it a suitable choice for applications where weight reduction is essential. Its lightweight nature is particularly beneficial in industries such as packaging, boat construction, and transport, where ease of handling and reduced energy consumption are importan

One side gloss, one side matte (from 10mm up) 

The gloss/matte surface (from 10mm up) may not be ideal for applications requiring uniform texture on both sides.

Manufacturing Process - Extrusion

The PE300 sheets are produced through an extrusion process, where high-density polyethylene (HDPE) is heated and forced through a mold to form sheets of consistent thickness and quality. This process ensures:

• Uniform material density and thickness
• Excellent chemical resistance and impact strength 
• High-quality surface finish with smooth, precise edges

The extrusion process results in a durable, versatile material that is well-suited for demanding applications. PE300 sheets maintain their structural integrity in harsh environments, making them ideal for industries such as chemical storage, food processing, water tanks, and industrial applications.
