Liners come in three resin types: Linear Low Density, High Density and Higher Alpha Olefin. Which type is best for you depends on your application, but there are a few general points to consider. | |||

Recycled |
Heavy Duty |
Extra Heavy Duty |

High Density |
Blended Linear Low Density |
Linear Low Density |
Super Hexene |
| Great puncture resistance, but less tear resistance than linear low density | Good puncture and tear resistance | Good puncture and tear resistance | Maximum puncture and better tear resistance |
| Stronger than linear low density liners of the same gauge due to higher tensile strength and great load-bearing capacity. | Equal or better strength than a conventional Linear Low Density bag at a lower gauge | Equal or better strength than a conventional Linear Low Density bag at a lower gauge | Gauge-for-gauge up to 50 percent stronger than comparable Linear Low Density bags |
| Can handle extreme temperature changes without compromising material integrity | Good stretch in the transverse (TD) and machine (MD) directions | Optimum stretch in the transverse (TD) and machine (MD) directions | Safest choice when you are uncertain about what kind of refuse you'll have |
| Better chemical resistance. Require 2/3 less petroleum-based raw material so they cost less to ship and store | Up to 70 percent recycled resin content | Latest generation resin with a proprietary formula. Require 2/3 less petroleum-based raw material so they cost less to ship and store | |
| Great all-purpose, cost effective liners, these bags are suitable for heavy, wet and non-sharp objects. | Thick, versatile liners satisfy EPA guidelines for recycled content and meet tough waste-handling needs. Ideal for heavy-duty applications like sharp, irregular waste | These are everyday-use liners that suit virtually any application and environment. The most commonly used bag in the industry | The best features of High Density and Linear Low Density bags in one. Ideal for heavy, irregular waste, and best used when maximum stretch and puncture resistance are needed. |
