PP Rigid Sheet (Glossy Surface) – Food Safe, Thermoformable


A Practical Buyer’s Guide to PP rigid sheet(glossy surface)

If you fabricate tanks, build cleanroom partitions, or simply need a corrosion-proof panel that looks sharp under overhead lights, you’ve probably run into glossy PP. To be honest, polymer sheets can feel interchangeable until you touch them. The gloss finish here is not just about looks; it reduces dirt pickup and, many customers say, “wipes clean in one pass,” which matters in food and lab environments.

What’s driving demand right now

Three things: chemical processing upgrades, cleaner production lines, and a push for recyclable materials. Polypropylene is fully recyclable, and—surprisingly—fabricators are asking for color-coded panels (light blue for hygiene zones, grey for utilities) to streamline audits. The shiny surface helps with visual inspection. I guess that’s why glossy PP is winning tenders in plating plants and food secondary packaging.

Key specs at a glance

PP rigid sheet(glossy surface) is a semi-crystalline polypropylene, typically a homopolymer tweak with ≈1–4% ethylene to curb brittleness above 0°C. Cut-to-size service is common, which saves scrap on-site.

Thickness2–40 mm
Width2–20 mm: 1000–2400 mm; 25–40 mm: 1000–1500 mm
LengthAny; cut-to-size available
Density≈0.90 g/cm³
Tensile strength (ISO 527)28–35 MPa (real-world use may vary)
Flexural modulus (ISO 178)≈1200–1500 MPa
Vicat softening (ISO 306)≈150 °C
HDT (ISO 75)≈100–110 °C
Surface gloss (60°)≈75–95 GU
ColorsNatural, grey (RAL7032), black, light blue, yellow, custom

How it’s made (and tested)

Resin selection (homo PP with ethylene copolymer), drying, then extrusion through a flat die. The glossy face is calendered on a polished chill roll; thickness is laser-monitored. Optional corona treatment boosts printability. Afterwards: edge-trim, anneal (reduces internal stress), protective film, palletize. QA pulls samples for ISO 527 tensile, ISO 178 flex, ISO 306 Vicat, ISO 868 hardness, and ISO 62 water absorption. Typical service life: 8–15 years indoors; outdoors needs UV-stabilized grades (3–5 years, climate-dependent).

Where it’s used

  • Chemical tank linings, fume hood panels, ductwork cladding.
  • Cleanroom walls and machine guards (gloss helps housekeeping).
  • Food secondary processing tables and splash guards (FDA-grade on request).
  • Wet benches, plating lines, acid/alkali environments.

Quick case notes

Electroplating OEM (SEA): swapped fiberglass panels for PP rigid sheet(glossy surface). Result: 22% faster wipe-downs, fewer micro-cracks near bolt holes after 8 months (ISO 527 pull tests on retained samples stayed within spec).

Food packaging site (EU): installed light-blue PP rigid sheet(glossy surface) splash guards. QA liked the visible cleanliness; RoHS/REACH declarations and optional FDA 21 CFR 177.1520 compliance supported the audit. Lead time was, actually, nine days door-to-door.
