Himod FT7293 by Borealis A/S is a LDPE (Polyethylene, Low Density) plastic material.
General Information
Product Description
Himod FT7293 is a tubular, low density, polyethylene grade for the production of packaging film.

Compared to standard LDPE grades, the Himod LDPE products provide a combination of higher stiffness and improved optical properties. Benefits can be obtained in terms of better down gauging possibilities and improved processability. Excellent printing quality is obtained due to high clarity and better layflat.

Himod FT7293 is intended for applications like:
  • Stiff films with excellent optical properties for automated packaging machinery
  • Lamination film/food packaging
  • Textile packaging films
  • Magazine packaging
