Polyethylene Sheeting and Film

What is polyethylene sheeting?

Polyethylene sheeting is made from a polymer prized across many industries for its durability, flexibility and moisture resistance. The properties of this versatile plastic make it ideal for applications in:

  • Construction (humidity control and water damage prevention)
  • Packaging (seal and protect products like food and medical items)
  • Manufacturing (protect equipment)
  • Automotive (prohibit rust)

Poly sheeting is available in different thicknesses, grades, and colors. Depending on the application, additives can be applied to accentuate certain characteristics.

Frequently Asked Questions about Polyethylene Film and Sheeting

What are the available thickness options for polyethylene sheeting?

Polyethylene sheeting is available in a range of thicknesses to suit different application needs, from .0005 to .010 mil.

Can polyethylene sheeting be used for outdoor applications?

Yes, polyethylene sheeting is commonly used for outdoor applications due to its excellent resistance to moisture, UV rays, and environmental factors. We can create a product incorporating Ultraviolet Inhibitor (UV) technology and more, depending on your needs.

How is your polyethylene sheeting typically sold?

Our polyethylene sheeting is sold in rolls. Let us know about your needs and we can create a custom quote for you.

What are the width and thickness options for poly film?

Versa Pak offers poly film in thicknesses from .0005 to .010 mil, and widths from 5-inch to 122-inch.

What is the typical lead time for receiving custom poly film products from Versa Pak?

The lead time for custom plastic products from Versa Pak can vary depending on factors such as order complexity, quantity, and current production capacity. However, we’re committed to providing efficient turnaround times. Your Versa Pak sales rep will help you get a better estimate of the lead time for your custom plastic products.

Can you create a custom poly blend for my film?

Yes! We can create custom blends and include properties such as ultraviolet inhibitor (UV) EVA, anti-static, hi-slip, low-slip and more.

Is your food packaging film FDA-approved?

Yes. All of the poly products that we manufacture are FDA-approved, SQF-compliant, and Kosher compliant.

What is the difference between LLDPE & LDPE?

LLDPE (Liner Low Density Polyethylene) and LDPE (Low Density Polyethylene) differ in their molecular structure. LLDPE has short, random chain branching, offering superior tensile, impact, tear strength, and seal strength compared to LDPE, which has highly branched, long chains providing acceptable toughness, flexibility, optics, and permeability but is not as strong as LLDPE. While not as strong as LLDPE resins, LDPE provides excellent shrink properties.
