Material Notes:

Himod FT7293 is a tubular, low-density polyethylene grade for the production of packaging films. Compared to standard LDPE grades, the Himod products provide a combination of higher stiffness and improved optical properties. Benefits can be obtained in terms of better down gauging possibilities and improved processability. Excellent printing quality is obtained due to high clarity and better layout.Himod FT7293 is intended for applications like: stiff films with excellent optical properties for automated packaging machinery, lamination film/food packaging, textile packaging films, and magazine packaging.Information provided by the Manufacturer.
