Product Description
HD0490 is an injection moulding grade of High Density Polyethylene combining excellent impact resistance with high density, hardness, stiffness and toughness.

HD0490 is intended for use in the production of stackable transport, storage and bottle crates and industrial mouldings demanding very good mechanical properties. Addition of a UV stabilizer should be considered where the intended application involves intermittent to extended exposure to sunlight. Suitability for use in any application should be determined by appropriate performance testing.

HD0490 is suitable for food contact applications and conforms to the requirements of the United States Food and Drug Administration CFR 21 177.1520, paragraph (c) item 3.1.
