Highly flexible Polypropylene Sheet.

Sheets measure 1100mm by 650mm with a thickness of 0.8mm, Polypropylene is suitable for a wide range of D&T applications. These opaque sheets have a high opacity considering they are only made from 0.8mm thin material. One surface of the sheet has a fine sand finish and the other has a sand finish.

The 0.8mm gauge makes the sheets flexible and ideal for products requiring a curved finish. The surfaces of the sheets are treated to make them suitable for printing. They are also static treated to minimise dust attraction.

Our opaque sheets include:

The transparent and translucent Polypropylene sheets are ideal from projects where light can be let through.
