Hollow sheets are manufactured by compressing polypropylene (PP) material fused at high temperatures. By incorporating additives such as color masterbatches, binders, polyethylene (PE), or antistatic agents, sheets with varying properties can be produced. Given these options, how should consumers select the right sheet for their needs?
Hollow sheets can be fabricated into various products, such as turnover boxes, internal dividers (dunnage), sleeve packs, layer pads, and wire harness reels. For general customers requiring turnover boxes, a standard 5mm sheet with a basis weight of 850g/m² is often suitable; this same material can also be used for internal dividers. However, applications requiring higher load-bearing capacity necessitate thicker sheets with a higher basis weight. Additionally, manufacturers of precision electronic components require antistatic sheets to meet their specific operational needs.
Automotive parts manufacturers and other medium-to-large-scale enterprises often opt for sleeve packs. These are constructed from honeycomb-structured hollow sheets through processes such as edge sealing, window cutting, bending, and fusion welding. These large-format containers can accommodate internal dividers and are designed for convenient stacking and easy access to contents.
