Product Description
HIPS is made by dissolving the rubber in a styrene monomer and then polymerizing the styrene in the usual way.HIPS retains some rubber content to increase impact strength.In addition,high heat resistance and fluidity allow the products various processing methods.This products meet the standards of foods and health from FDA in America, thus the products guarantee non-toxicity for food packing meterials and toys.

Applications:
Refrigerator tray, tray for food, refrigerator door liner.
