Regulatory & Compliance

Regulatory Information

GREENETHENE G-3904U meets the requirement stipulated in standard IS:10141:2001 on “Specification for Polyethylene for safe use in contact with foodstuff, pharmaceuticals & Drinking Water”. It also conforms to IS 12701:1996 –“Specification For Rotational Molded Polyethylene Water Storage Tanks.”.

Packaging & Availability

Custom Grades

Different rotomoulding applications can require different grades of material. We produce customize grades by compounding different Materials and by altering the grinding specification as required. For example if you need a material that is very stiff but also flows well we can produce a high density grade with a high melt flow and we can also alter the grinding specification to enhance mouldability.

Storage & Handling

Storage Conditions

Bags should be stored in dry/closed conditions at temperature below 50 0C.
