King KPC LDPE

A King Performance Commodity

King KPC LDPE Natural is Made with FDA and USDA-Approved Material. Easily Fabricated, Welded and Thermoformed.
King LDPE is Moisture Resistant, Impact Resistant, Somewhat Flexible and has Good Abrasion Resistance.

King KPC low-density polyethylene is produced with our proprietary K-Stran® process for unsurpassed flatness and quality up to 1-1/4” in thickness, for larger gauges our state-of-the-art compression molding system is utilized to create the  same quality sheets, slabs or massive shapes. King KPC LDPE extruded sheets are very pliable with a low Durometer of 42, with a smooth soft translucent appearance and a special formulation, which is made with the finest FDA and USDA, approved materials. KPC LDPE stock sheet is ideal for applications such as stencils, orthopedics, packaging, sound deadening, and the automotive industries. Other applications may include trays, general-purpose containers, food storage, laboratory containers, and corrosion-resistant work surfaces. KPC LDPE sheets are also used for applications where corrosion resistance is a factor but stiffness, high temperatures and structural strength are not. We also offer our KPC LDPE in a special grade, which is certified as a barrier material or radiation shielding nuclear naval warships, submarines and certain medical applications.
King Plastic Corporation is certified by prime vendors of the U.S. government as the source for type V neutron shielding material. Our processes, materials, quality programs, sampling testing, and packagingall meet or exceed military specification MIL-P-23536A.
