POLYTHENE SHEETS

At Maple Leaf, we manufacture Polythene Sheets for a wide variety of industrial and construction applications. Polyethylene molecules have a high water-vapor transmission rate (WVTR), meaning they act as excellent barriers to moisture and vapors such as oxygen. In addition, polyethylene is chemically non-reactive, allowing it to act as a corrosion-resistant shield against alkalis and nitrates present in the soil without getting degraded.

Our polythene sheets comply with the popular standards for testing Vapor Barriers such as ASTM-4397, which further comply with the installation standard ASTM E1643.

VAPOR BARRIER

Our 3 layer co-extruded Polythene Sheet give a superior level of protection against moisture, vapors and chemicals. It is suitable for use in building construction as a concrete underlay. It helps prevent structural damping that occurs when warm, moist air penetrates and condenses inside a concrete slab, wall, roof or floor structure.

Our specially formulated Polythene Sheet prevents mold growth, rotting of timber and corrosion of metallic structures. Commonly used polythene sheets for such application measure between 125 microns (500 Gauge) and 250 microns (1000 Gauge) in thickness.

CORROSION RESISTANCE

Ductile iron pipes used for water, oil and gas pipelines are particularly susceptible to rust and corrosion due to sub-soil chemicals such as sulfides, chlorides, and nitrates. The usable lifespan of such pipes can be significantly extended by encasing them in a polythene tube of at least 175 microns (700 Gauge) thickness.

GLASS / ALUMINIUM PROTECTION

Glass slabs and extruded aluminum sections are vulnerable to scratches and stains during transportation and shipping. Thick polythene sheets are wrapped around these structures to act as a barrier against external elements such as dust, moisture, salts which can detrimentally affect its aesthetic appearance. Recommended thickness range for such applications is 150 microns (600 Gauge) to 250 microns (1000 Gauge).

INTERIOR AND RENOVATION WOKS

General purpose polythene sheets are an ideal and economic solution for protection of fixtures and furniture during renovation and painting works. Our 200 Gauge polythene sheet is easy to handle and protects against paint spills, scratches and dust to give a “brand new” appearance to any renovation project.

LANDSCAPING

Our heavy-duty 300 microns (1200 Gauge) Black Polythene Sheet is perfect for weed-control in landscaping projects. It kills the weed surrounding the vegetation by blocking its access to sunlight.

CUSTOM PRINTED SHEETS

Our custom printed sheets are widely used by manufactures of carpets and geotextiles for final product packaging. We offer 4 color flexographic printing to add custom logos and product data to the polythene sheets.
