SABIC® HDPE

Polyolefins are a family of polymers derived from propylene and ethylene. They make up the highest volume of thermoplastic products in the world. They form tough, flexible plastics with a large variety of uses. Research and development are increasing the variety of polyolefins, and as a result they are steadily replacing traditional materials in many applications. What’s more, polyolefins are generally easy to recycle.

HIGH PERFORMANCE METALLOCENE POLYETHYLENE
SABIC new Octene-Metallocene Polyethylene (C8-mPE) and Polyolefin Plastomer (POP) products are produced using NexleneTM technology with a combination of solution process and proprietary metallocene catalyst.
SABIC’s broad C8-mPE and POP product portfolio provides comprehensive ‘one-stop’ solutions to help our customers meet the most critical challenges across various applications in packaging, hygiene, agricultural & industrial films, construction and consumer products.
High performance Nexlene™ products provides superior general physical properties, transparency, processibility, and organoleptic properties.

PE AND PP
SABIC is a major producer of the key polyolefins PE (Polyethylene) and PP (Polypropylene). Uses range from rigid materials for refrigerators, computers and car parts to industrial food packaging and waterproof film. Some polyolefin products have heat-resistant properties that make them ideal for use in, for example, packaging microwaveable food, while others melt easily for use in heat-sealable wrapping. We make several different types of each polyolefin.

Packaging manufacturers will be able to make more appealing designs for bottles and containers with the launch of SABIC’s brightest ever range of HDPE called CLARENE.

Through blow molding and compression molding production processes, CLARENE exhibits the essential properties for manufacturers to produce durable and recyclable packaging. On shelf display, the superior white bottles and containers offer a competitive advantage to customers, strengthening brand image in the overcrowded marketplace through the production of eye-catching bottles and containers.

“Compelling packaging plays an important role in building brand loyalty and driving purchase. It has never been more important to ensure your product’s packaging stands out from its competitors,” says Ton Sevriens, Business Development Manager (HDPE) for SABIC. “CLARENE can help manufacturers create products that will appeal to brand owners and the end-consumer too.”

“This new HDPE range underscores once more that SABIC is strongly committed to the packaging market. SABIC uses its ‘Chemistry that Matters™’ approach to invest continuously to support the challenges and ambitions of our customers. They tell us that the brightest looking product on the shelf will be the one the customer picks up. CLARENE will help them create products consumers want to put in their baskets” adds Sevriens.
