Bags and pouches

Polyolefin based resins from LyondellBasell are chosen by customers for use in bags and pouches due to their cost-competitiveness and ease of production, filling and transport compared to traditional materials. Other attributes include defined elongation or shrink properties; improved flexibility and thermal resistance compared to paper and cardboard; increased impact resistance relative to glass, paper and cardboard; improved inertness, i.e., lower chemical interaction compared to metal cans; design flexibility to improve shelf appeal, tamper-resistance and ease of use, as well as small and large lot production capabilities. Bags and pouches are the most effective types of packaging with a much lower impact to the environment compared to glass and metal.
