Average density between 0.930 g/cm³ and 0.940 g/cm³. The melting point is 125 to 128°C. Temperature resistant from -50°C to +90C. Created by mixing LDPE and HDPE, combining the properties of LDPE and HDPE. MDPE (Medium Density Polyethylene) is characterized by a matt surface, high strength and a slight crackling effect. Softer than LDPE and stiffer than LDPE. More flexible than HDPE. High scratch resistance.
Other advantages include good impact and fall resistance, as well as better cutting response than HDPE. Meets food handling guidelines. This material has many uses, most commonly as a packaging material.

Protective films for construction applications
Cable sheathing (outside of traditional film extrusion)
Higher-strength carrier bags
Trash bags, especially where puncture resistance is required
Other properties:
