Description
General purpose crystal polystyrene (GPPS) is a transparent polymer formed by polymerisation of the monomer styrene.
Properties and features
GPPS is a clear, transparent material, ideal for applications where visibility and aesthetics are important, such as packaging or display products.
This material contains very little unpolymerized monomer, making it safer for food applications and reducing the risk of chemical migration.
GPPS maintains its dimensions and shape after molding, guaranteeing high precision and consistent quality of finished products.
It resists high temperatures well, enabling it to be used in environments where it is exposed to heat without deforming.
This material is easy to process by molding, extrusion or thermoforming, making it economical and efficient for mass production.
Applications
Packaging
Transparent boxes for electronic products, cosmetics and medicine blisters.
Sheet applications
Sheets for advertising panels, temporary protective glazing and food products.
Household products
Lids for storage boxes, housings for small household appliances and decorative elements.
Food containers
Yogurt pots, cups, transparent food trays.
