LLDPE
Linear Low Density Polyethylene
Linear low density polyethylene for stretch, agricultural and heavy-duty film.
01 Overview
LLDPE delivers markedly higher puncture and tear resistance than conventional LDPE at equal or lower gauge, which is why it dominates stretch wrap and agricultural film. Butene and hexene comonomer grades are both traded, with hexene material offering superior mechanical performance for downgauging programmes.
02 Grades traded
- Butene (C4) film grades
- Hexene (C6) film grades
- Rotomoulding grades
- Injection moulding grades
03 Typical specification
Values shown are indicative and vary by producer grade. The binding specification is the producer certificate of analysis issued against your consignment, supplied with every offer.
04 Applications

- Agricultural and greenhouse film
- Heavy duty shipping sacks
- Rotomoulded tanks and containers
- Film blends for downgauging

06 Packaging options
- 25 kg PE bags on pallet
- 1000 / 1250 kg jumbo bags

07 Supply & export note
Both butene and hexene grades are supplied. Where a buyer is running a downgauging trial we can supply a technical sample quantity ahead of the commercial order so line performance is proven before commitment.
