Unveiling the Truth: The Simplicity of Food-Grade HDPE and PP Sheets 

Have you ever wondered what makes a plastic food-grade? 

The answer is simpler than you might think. For plastics like HDPE and PP, the key to food-grade status lies in their molecular composition. These plastics are primarily composed of carbon (C) and hydrogen (H) atoms. When produced using virgin, or new, resin, these plastics are inherently food-safe.

The Chemistry of Food-Grade Plastics

HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene) and PP (Polypropylene) are two of the most common plastics used in food packaging and processing equipment. Their simple molecular structure means that they are chemically inert, making them highly resistant to acids, bases, and other substances. This inertness is what makes them suitable for direct contact with food.

• No Harmful Additives: Unlike some other plastics, HDPE and PP do not require the addition of harmful chemicals to achieve their desired properties. This purity is essential for ensuring food safety.

• FDA Approved: Both HDPE and PP are approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for food contact, further attesting to their safety.
