Question 1

What is the difference between LDPE and LLDPE for film?

Accepted Answer

LDPE (Low-Density Polyethylene) offers excellent clarity and flexibility, ideal for shrink wrap and general-purpose bags. LLDPE (Linear Low-Density Polyethylene) provides superior puncture resistance and tensile strength, making it preferred for stretch film, heavy-duty bags, and agricultural film. Many converters blend both for optimal performance.

Question 2

What LDPE and LLDPE grades are available in Saudi Arabia?

Accepted Answer

Key grades include SABIC HP0322NN and HP0323NN (LDPE film), SABIC 318BJ and 218BJ (LLDPE), and various SIBUR and Borouge film grades. Pure Materials sources from multiple producers to ensure availability.

Question 3

What MFR range is typical for film-grade LDPE?

Accepted Answer

Film-grade LDPE typically has an MFR of 0.3–2.0 g/10 min (190°C/2.16 kg). Lower MFR grades (0.3–0.7) are used for heavy-duty film and lamination, while higher MFR grades (1.0–2.0) suit general packaging and bags.

Question 4

Can you supply film-grade resin to African markets?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We regularly export LDPE and LLDPE film grades to Sudan, East Africa, and West Africa. We handle COA verification, export documentation, and shipping under FOB/CFR/CIF terms.

Question 5

What is the current price range for LDPE film grade in KSA?

Accepted Answer
