Polyethylene

Polyethylene – a lightweight, durable, and versatile engineering material

Polyethylene (PE) is one of the most widely used thermoplastics, which has earned an important place in modern industry due to its versatility, mechanical strength, and resistance to environmental factors. UAB Almeida offers high-quality polyethylene semi-finished products – sheets, strips, and parts according to individual drawings, meeting the needs of various sectors in Kaunas, Vilnius, Šiauliai, Panevėžys, Klaipėda, and other cities. Solutions are available for both mass production and specific projects requiring thick polyethylene, high chemical resistance or a specific surface structure.

Applications in packaging, insulation, engineering, and food industry products

Due to its inertness and resistance, polyethylene is used in a wide variety of applications, from packaging films to strong components in the food, construction, engineering, chemical, agricultural, and automotive industries. It is suitable for direct contact with food products and is therefore widely used in the manufacture of cutting boards, conveyor surfaces, insulation and sliding elements. Polyethylene sheets and tapes are also used as resistant, slip-reducing surfaces in storage, transport, and production systems.

Physical and chemical properties – elasticity, slipperiness, chemical resistance

Polyethylene is characterized by high resistance to chemicals, low friction coefficient, elasticity, and good impact absorption even at low temperatures. PE 500, PE 1000, and PE 8000 grades offer a variety of densities, strengths, surface slipperiness, and abrasion resistance. These properties make PE indispensable where resistance to abrasion or contact with grease, moisture, petroleum products and other aggressive substances is required.

Long service life under the influence of moisture, frost and mechanical loads

PE products are resistant to UV rays, moisture, cold, and impact, making them ideal for outdoor use or in refrigeration technology. Even after prolonged exposure to mechanical stress or extreme weather conditions, polyethylene does not change its properties – it does not become brittle or lose its shape, which is particularly important in infrastructure and transportation.

Processing options and technical solutions

UAB Almeida’s polyethylene production is based on flexibility – we offer standard-size sheets and customised solutions. The equipment available allows for the processing of various types of PE plastic using different cutting, forming, and joining technologies. Customers can purchase both finished products and raw materials for their own production.

Flexible forming through cutting, welding, and molding processes

Polyethylene can be processed in several ways – it can be cut, milled, welded, bent or molded. These technologies allow the production of precise elements of various geometric shapes, used in mechanical systems, advertising and engineering structures.

Compatibility with different technological equipment

Due to its stable structure, polyethylene is compatible with most industrial machines and automated lines. PE sheets and blanks can be easily integrated into existing production schemes. The products supplied by UAB Almeida are suitable for machine manufacturers, construction companies, and food processing equipment manufacturers.

Low weight and easy installation in structures

Polyethylene is significantly lighter than metals or some composite materials, making it easy to install even in complex structures or moving systems. This feature reduces transportation costs and allows for easy replacement or upgrading of structural elements without heavy equipment.

Fast production according to individual orders with UAB Almeida

UAB Almeida manufactures both standard and non-standard polyethylene products according to customer drawings or technical specifications. We offer competitive prices, flexible delivery terms, and the possibility to obtain the required quantity – from single pieces to larger batches. The company’s specialists work with customers throughout Lithuania – in Kaunas, Vilnius, Šiauliai, Panevėžys, and Klaipėda – providing detailed consultations and customized solutions.
