Montreal, Quebec · Polyethylene Extrusion Since Day One
Polyethylene Extrusion Packaging Company
Manufacturing Custom PE Film in Canada
Zohar Plast is a Montreal-based polyethylene extrusion packaging company producing custom LDPE, LLDPE, and HDPE extruded film, lay-flat sheeting, poly tubing, and film bags to your exact width, gauge, and resin specification — shipped across Canada and the United States.
The Zohar Plast Difference
A Polyethylene Extrusion Packaging Company
Built Around Your Specification
Most packaging film problems start upstream — at the extruder. Off-spec widths, inconsistent gauge, wrong resin grade, or additives that fail food-contact compliance. Working with a polyethylene extrusion packaging company that controls its own extrusion process means those variables are solved before the film reaches your line.
At Zohar Plast, every order runs through our own extrusion equipment at our Montreal facility. We set the die gap, the melt temperature, and the resin blend. We do not buy in generic roll stock and cut it down — we manufacture PE film from raw resin to finished roll, to your specification, every time.

How We Manufacture
The Polyethylene Extrusion Process
From Resin to Finished Packaging Film
Understanding what happens inside a polyethylene extrusion packaging company explains why custom extrusion outperforms off-the-shelf film for demanding food processing and industrial packaging applications.
01
Resin Selection
Virgin PE resin — LDPE, LLDPE, or HDPE — is selected to match your application’s mechanical, barrier, and compliance requirements. Food-grade virgin resin is sourced to FDA and CFIA specifications.
02
Blown Film Extrusion
Resin pellets are melted and forced through an annular die, inflated into a bubble, and drawn upward to set gauge and width. Die gap, bubble ratio, and melt temperature are set precisely for your film specification.
03
Converting & Slitting
The collapsed bubble is converted to your specified format — lay-flat sheeting, roll film, poly tubing, or slit and sealed into film bags — on cores sized to your packaging equipment.
04
Quality & Dispatch
Finished rolls are checked for gauge consistency, seal performance, and compliance documentation before dispatch from our Montreal facility to customers across Canada and the United States.
Polyethylene Extrusion Film Types
Manufactured at Zohar Plast
Each PE resin type extruded differently, performs differently, and suits different packaging applications. Here is how the three primary extruded polyethylene film types compare.
| Extruded Film Type | Extrusion & Film Properties | Packaging Applications | Grades Available | Zohar Plast |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Extruded LDPE Film | Soft, highly flexible, excellent optical clarity, outstanding heat-seal performance, superior moisture barrier, low-temperature flexibility — processes smoothly on blown film lines | Food wrap, produce packaging, bakery film, protective sheeting, lamination film, liner film | Food-grade virgin, industrial virgin | ✓ Custom Extrusion |
| Extruded LLDPE Film | Outstanding puncture resistance and elongation, superior dart impact strength, excellent tear resistance, freezer-rated — typically co-extruded or blended for downgauging | Heavy-duty wrap, frozen food packaging, meat film, pallet stretch film, agricultural film | Food-grade virgin, industrial virgin | ✓ Custom Extrusion |
| Extruded HDPE Film | High stiffness-to-thickness ratio, excellent chemical resistance, strong barrier at thin gauges — extruded at narrow gauge for lightweight economical packaging film | Merchandise bags, commodity wrap, dry goods film, produce roll, industrial sheeting | Food-grade virgin, industrial virgin | ✓ Custom Extrusion |
| PE Blend Extrusion | Tailored LDPE/LLDPE or LDPE/HDPE blends dialled in at the extruder for optimised clarity, stiffness, stretch, and puncture resistance in a single film structure | Applications requiring combined properties not achievable from a single resin grade | Specified at quoting stage | ✓ On Request |

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
About Our Polyethylene Extrusion Packaging
What is a polyethylene extrusion packaging company?
A polyethylene extrusion packaging company manufactures flexible PE film packaging directly from raw polyethylene resin using blown film or cast film extrusion equipment. Unlike distributors or converters that cut and re-sell generic stock roll film, an extrusion company controls the full manufacturing process — resin selection, melt temperature, die gap, and film dimensions — to produce custom packaging film to your exact specification.
Is there a minimum order quantity for custom PE extrusion?
Zohar Plast works with customers across a range of order volumes, from specialised custom extrusion runs to large ongoing supply agreements. Contact us with your specifications and quantity requirements and we will advise on minimum order quantities and pricing for your extruded film application.
Can you match or improve on an existing extruded film?
Yes. If you have an existing polyethylene film you want to replicate or improve, provide the specifications or send a sample and we will manufacture a matching solution from our extrusion facility. We can also recommend resin, gauge, or additive adjustments to improve performance, seal strength, or compliance for your application.
