 "KARPATNAFTOKHIM" LLC

launched an investment project

regarding the release of a new wrapping polyethylene film

67

      In the workshop for the production of ethylene halide derivatives, their polymers and copolymers, KARPATNAFTOKHIM LLC produces not only the main commercial product - high-density polyethylene, but also three types of films. In particular, wrapping, covering and bag film for packing polyethylene in 25 kg bags and packing in pallets.

Until recently, the wrapping film was produced from linear polyethylene of the American company Dowlex, which has its factories in Switzerland, Spain, Germany and Holland. Linear polyethylene produced by Aramco from Saudi Arabia was used for the production of the cover film and bag sleeve. It was decided to produce all types of films from Aramco's linear polyethylene and, accordingly, to abandon expensive polyethylene from the American company Dowlex. After that, appropriate engineering and technological changes were implemented on the production line.

After the release of the first trial batch of the film (400 kg), a laboratory analysis of the mechanical, adhesive and other properties of the film was made. It turned out that in terms of adhesive properties, it was even better, and in terms of mechanical properties, it was no worse than the wrapping film, which was previously produced from linear polyethylene of the American company. In the first decade of January 2021, more than 10,000 tons of wrapping film were produced. If necessary, the volume of manufactured products can be increased several times.
