Product Description
Clyrell RC514L is a unique clear polyolifinic resin particularly suited for extrusion-thermoforming, injection blow moulding and sheet extrusion. It offers an excellent clarity combined with high rigidity and gloss.

Over standard PP resins Clyrell RC514L has an impoved processability/formability and is therefore an attractive cost solution in some specific PVC and A-PET applications.

Targeted application for Clyrell RC514L are fresh food packaging, ready meal trays, drinking cups and Form-Fill-Seal (FFS) blister packs.
