Advantages of Plastic Bin Liners
Advantages of Linear Low Density Can Liners 1. Maximum puncture and stretch resistance compared to High Density 2. Multi-purpose applications 3. Most prevalent type of film used in the industry today. 4. Manufactured in a wide variety of colors. 5. Compared to traditional low density film, linear low can be run at a lighter gauge with equal strength. Advantages of High Density Can Liners 1. HMW/HD liners are about 3 times stronger and more durable than ordinary polyethylene liners of the same thickness. 2. HMW/HD liners require two-thirds less petroleum based raw material to manufacture. Accordingly, they can be made about one-third the thickness of ordinary low density polyethylene liners, so they require only about one-third the ordinary shipping, storage and warehousing cost. 3. Substantial cost savings per liner. 4. When they are properly made, HMW/HD liners will rarely "zipper" if punctured. 5. Extremely wide range of temperature resistance from -40 degrees F to +212 degrees F (boiling). 6. USDA and FDA approved (natural colored liners).
