LDPE (Low-Density Polyethylene) Resins for Food Packaging

LDPE (Low-Density Polyethylene), a highly versatile thermoplastic, finds its place across an extensive range of applications, from flexible food packaging to diapers, toys, artificial turf, and beyond. While some may view LDPE as a general-purpose material, at Dow we recognize its exceptional value in transforming the ordinary into something extraordinary.

Dow LDPE resins are engineered to provide optimal clarity, stiffness, strength, tear resistance, and elasticity. These properties combine to create a material that not only meets but exceeds performance expectations. Moreover, our LDPE resins enhance the processing efficiency, enabling high-speed production while remaining cost competitive.

Whether you're in the business of food packaging or other innovative uses, Dow's LDPE resins are here to elevate your products, setting new standards for quality and performance.
