HDPE

High Density PolyEthylene  (HDPE) is a thermoplastic prepared from ethylene by a catalytic

process. The global market for HDPE in 2007 is around 30 million tons. 

HDPE is a very commonly recycled type of plastic and

is well accepted in most recycling centers. 

 

HDPE are used toward blow-molded containers such as milk jugs, juice containers,

detergent bottles, motor oil bottles, trash bins, etc.

That is nearly one third of HDPE’s annual production worldwide.
