LDPE is a thermoplastic created from the monomer ethylene. It’s an adaptable and commonly used polymer to create various consumer, commercial, and industrial products
As the name suggests, LDPE differs from HDPE as it has a lower density. It’s not as strong but is thinner, more malleable, has greater transparency, and has a lower melting point Rigid and soft LDPE plastics are normally separated before recycling. Soft LDPE film is often sorted by grade to ensure high-quality material output. You can store all types of LDPE and other plastic waste together on site though, as it will be sorted at the recycling centre before processing..
