Extrusion

Extrusion Facilities

At Flexopack Ltd, our state-of-the-art extrusion facilities are the foundation of our production process, enabling us to transform raw polyethylene materials into high-quality polythene products. With advanced equipment and expert operators, we extrude a wide range of materials, including LDPE and LLDPE, to create versatile solutions that meet the unique demands of our customers across multiple industries.

Our Extrusion Process

Extrusion is at the heart of what we do, and we pride ourselves on our ability to deliver consistent, high-quality polythene materials. Our process involves melting raw polyethylene resin and forming it into continuous films, sheets, or tubing, which are then converted into various packaging products. This process allows us to create materials that are customized to your specific requirements, including thickness, width, and strength.

Materials We Extr​ude

We specialize in extruding both LDPE (Low-Density Polyethylene) and LLDPE (Linear Low-Density Polyethylene), known for their flexibility, strength, and moisture resistance. These materials are ideal for a wide variety of packaging applications, providing the durability and versatility needed for everything from industrial sheeting to consumer packaging. In addition, we are committed to sustainability, extruding high-quality recycled polythene materials sourced from across the UK.

  • LDPE: Known for its excellent clarity, flexibility, and strength, LDPE is widely used in applications requiring lightweight but durable materials, such as bags and liners.
  • LLDPE: Offering increased strength and puncture resistance compared to LDPE, LLDPE is a perfect choice for applications where toughness and flexibility are critical.
  • Recycled Polythene: We integrate recycled content into our extrusion process, producing sustainable, eco-friendly products that maintain the high standards of quality expected from virgin materials.

Versatile Polythene Products

Our extrusion facilities are designed to produce a broad range of polythene products tailored to suit different needs:

  • Polythene Sheeting: Available in various thicknesses and widths, our sheeting is used for applications such as protective covers, industrial wrapping, and construction materials.
  • Polythene Films: We produce high-quality films suitable for a wide range of applications, including packaging, agriculture, and building industries.
  • Tubing and Sleeving: Perfect for customized packaging solutions, our extruded tubing and sleeving are produced to your exact specifications for use in automated bagging and packaging systems.

Sustainable Extrusion

As part of our commitment to reducing environmental impact, we integrate sustainable practices throughout our extrusion operations. By using recycled materials and optimizing our processes to reduce waste, we are able to produce eco-friendly packaging solutions without compromising on quality or performance.

Customization and Flexibility

We understand that no two projects are alike, and our extrusion capabilities allow for significant customization. Whether you need specific sizes, finishes, or properties, our extrusion lines are designed to deliver materials that meet your exact requirements. Our experienced team works closely with you to understand your needs and ensure that every product we extrude is aligned with your goals.

Commitment to Quality

Quality is at the core of our extrusion process. Our facilities are equipped with advanced monitoring systems to ensure that every batch of material meets the highest standards of consistency and performance. From thickness control to material strength, we continually test and refine our processes to ensure that the final product is reliable, durable, and fit for purpose.
