Marlex® HMN 6060 High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE)

Multicolored Crates

Marlex® HMN 6060 high-density polyethylene (HDPE) is a high-modulus injection molding grade engineered for rigid applications that require exceptional stiffness, strength and dimensional stability. It delivers a robust balance of mechanical performance and toughness, making it well suited for crates, tote boxes and structural foam parts used in demanding material handling and industrial environments.

Designed to perform reliably in thick-section and structural applications, Marlex® HMN 6060 PE supports consistent part geometry and long service life in products exposed to repeated loading, stacking and transport. Its high-modulus profile enables manufacturers to produce rigid components that retain shape and performance across extended use cycles.

Produced using CPChem’s proprietary MarTECH® loop slurry process and advanced catalyst technologies, Marlex® HDPE resins provide uniform molecular structure, efficient processing and dependable performance across injection molding and structural foam platforms.
