All of our polyethylene resins are derived from North American natural gas. Polyethylene is simply long chains of ethylene (C2H4) monomers. For literally billions of years, plants have produced ethylene gas naturally to make their fruits ripen.
Most of our products are further converted to some form of packaging. We have historically catered to the demands of printers, laminators and bag manufacturers, so our industrial films are made to these higher standards.
We have always advocated films which are stronger pound per pound than ordinary polyethylenes and yield a lower package cost. In addition to reducing packaging costs, we conserve natural gas by reducing the amount of plastic per package and quantity of plastic destined for the landfill.
