What are HDPE Plastic Bottles and their common uses?
The majority of plastic bottles utilize HDPE resins because they are
inexpensive, impact & chemical resistant, and provide superior moisture
barriers. HDPE is mostly used in the creation of milk and juice bottles but
due to its chemical resistant properties, it can also be used to hold
household chemicals and detergents. Pigmented or colored HDPE bottles have
an enhanced fracture resistant property.
