King KPC HDPE is a high-density polyethylene material. It is the product of a proprietary process called K-Stran™, the most advanced manufacturing process for superior flatness and consistency for gauges up to 1 -1/2” thick. Larger gauges are manufactured in our state-of-the-art compression mold or extrusion mold. King KPC HDPE has a natural, smooth gloss finish on both sides of the sheet. It is extremely versatile with outstanding properties and good chemical resistance for a wide variety of applications at a very competitive cost. King KPC HDPE natural is FDA and USDA approved material that can be used for food containers and food equipment. * The material is easy to machine and fabricate.
King KPC HDPE is upgradable to King MicroShield® with an advanced antimicrobial technology for protecting the product surface against stain and odor causing bacteria, algae and fungi.*
King KPC HDPE is upgradable with King FlameShield, for ASTM E-84 Class A Flame Compliance and CAN/ULC-S102 for Canadian Compliance.
