Freelin Wade
Polyethylene Tubing Low Density

We offer two varieties of polyethylene, both using a high quality resin that is impermeable to gasses and moisture. Lightweight and flexible, our polyethylene is perfect for food and beverage manufacturing. 

Freelin-Wade uses two different classes of polyethylene for their tubing: Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) and Linear Low Density Polyethylene (LLDPE). The difference between the two is that LDPE is more flexible while LLDPE has superior environmental stress crack resistance.
