Product Overview
Transparent PP (clarified polypropylene) delivers glass-like clarity with light transmission of 90% or higher, combined with the lightweight, chemical resistance and cost advantage of polypropylene. It is the material of choice for food storage containers, drinking cups, medical items, stationery and household ware where transparency, safety and economy matter.
Jinsu distributes transparent PP from two leading Chinese petrochemical brands — Yanchang and Yangzi — giving you a choice of grades optimized for injection molding, thin-wall molding and general packaging. All grades are food-contact approved, with high gloss, low haze and consistent clarity batch after batch.
With factory-direct sourcing, competitive transparent PP price per kg, free samples, low MOQ and worldwide shipping, Jinsu makes it easy to switch to clarified PP. Contact us for grade selection advice and a technical datasheet for your application.
Applications in Detail
Food Storage Containers
Fresh-keeping boxes, lunch boxes and food storage containers benefit from transparent PP's clarity, food-contact safety and microwave resistance. Parts stay clear and glossy through repeated dishwasher and microwave cycles without warping or hazing.
Drinking Cups & Medical Items
Disposable cups, medicine cups, syringes and other medical items require clarity for content visibility and safety. Transparent PP provides the transparency, stiffness and chemical resistance needed, at a lower cost than PC or PET.
Stationery & Household Ware
Pencil boxes, document folders, storage boxes and household organizers use transparent PP for its clarity, toughness and hinge-fatigue resistance. The material's easy flow fills thin-wall and complex molds reliably with short cycle times.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Yanchang and Yangzi transparent PP?
Both brands deliver high-clarity food-contact PP. Yanchang grades are well suited to general injection molding and thin-wall containers, while Yangzi grades are widely used in cups and food packaging. We help you select the right grade for your mold, machine and cost targets.
Is transparent PP food-contact approved?
Yes. The grades we distribute are food-contact approved and comply with relevant national standards for food packaging. If your application requires specific certifications such as FDA or EU 10/2011, contact us and we will provide the relevant documentation.
What is the light transmission of transparent PP?
Typical light transmission is 90% or higher with haze below 10%, depending on grade and wall thickness. For maximum clarity, we recommend thin-wall designs and injection temperatures within the recommended processing window.
What is the minimum order quantity?
Our standard MOQ is one ton, with smaller trial quantities available for samples. We ship worldwide by sea or air and can arrange export documentation and regional delivery.
