LDPE Sheet Rolls (Low-Density Polyethylene)


LDPE Plastic Sheeting

Low-density polyethylene (LDPE) has thousands of uses in personal and commercial applications. This thermoplastic polyethylene sheet is tough, flexible, and resists impacts and chemicals. Though not as strong as HDPE, it is an economical way to protect items and is practical when you need a covering or container that can bend without breaking.

A translucent PE sheet is ideal for lightweight, flexible cutting boards and food preparation surfaces. It can be used to make temporary window and roof coverings, tray liners, squeeze bottles, pipe conduits and much more. People wrap LDPE around sensitive equipment for protection during transport and to shield car parts and electronics from the rain. This versatility is part of the reason that LDPE plastic sheeting is so popular.
