High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) HDPE is the most widely used type of plastic.  It’s used to make many types of bottles and containers. Unpigmented bottles are translucent, have good barrier properties and stiffness, and are well suited to packaging products with a short shelf life such as milk. Because HDPE has good chemical resistance, it is used for packaging many household and industrial chemicals such as detergents and bleach. Pigmented HDPE bottles have better stress crack resistance than unpigmented HDPE. -Excellent resistance to most solvents -Higher tensile strength compared to other forms of polyethylene -Relatively stiff material with useful temperature capabilities -Excellent resistance to most solvents -Higher tensile strength compared to other forms of polyethylene -Relatively stiff material with useful temperature capabilities Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) Includes Linear Low Density Polyethylene (LLDPE) LDPE is used predom...

Subject:  Chem Data Report - May 2017 LLDPE    May CDI is out and estimates $.03 down on LDPE, LLDPE, and HDPE. This has been confirmed as the market position by more than one of our resin suppliers but not all. That being said, I don’t see how this does not become the eventual market position for May. PP is being posted at down $.075. See below the resin moves we’ve had this year. We had resin increases of $.05 in February and $.03 in March. There was a pending $.03 increase for May 1st that has been pushed out to June 1st. In addition to delaying the above $.03 May 1st increase, the market appears to be dropping $.03 May 1st. This would leave the $.05 increase from February as the only movement we’ve had in resin pricing this year.  More pricing information here: www.quickpakinc.com
