Frequently Asked Questions
Our Coex LDPE film is suitable for a wide range of applications. Some examples of great fits are shrinkfilms, perforated sheets, and industrial packaging.
Very much so! Aside from being fully recyclable itself, our PCR film contains a certain concentration of material that’s already been recycled once. We’d gladly help you choose the right amount of PCR concentration for your needs!
The ‘concentration’ illustrates the amount of PCR material within the entire packaging. So for example: our Flex-R 55 film contains 55% PCR, and 45% prime LDPE.
Yes we do! You should note however, that this film can only be used as a secondary material and when the PCR concentration goes up the characteristics of PCR become more noticeable. A 100% PCR film contains a dark gray tint, different machine specifications and a lower expected run ability.
