Buying American products can save jobs and redeem the American brand. That doesn’t just mean buying Ford, Chrysler and Kodak, it means buying products that are made in America.

Many products are made in China and other counties that are often comparable. So why buy American? Jennifer Granholm, the former governor of Michigan, says that if the nation decides that the logical choice is to stop making things in the U.S., there would be more consequences than just massive job losses.
 
Buying American creates American jobs as well. Consumers control the marketplace, Buy American.  When consumers choose American-manufactured products, they support American jobs — the more US products purchased, the more US jobs are created.

We want you to know that Atlantic Poly is a steward of the earth's environment in that we work very hard to maximize the use of recycled source material throughout our entire supply process. This blog will focus on the product nature and recycling promise of two of our primary products: Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) and High Density Polyethylene (HDPE).
 
LDPE is the basic compound of original commercial use of polyethylene. LPDE is characterized by good toughness, resistance to chemicals, flexibility and clarity. It's an excellent material in low heat electrical and chemical applications. LDPE is a flexible plastic which makes it a very versatile product with a wide range of commercial applications. In recent years, LDPE versatility improved as it emerged as a commonly accepted recyclable product. The average household today utilizes an assortment of recycled LDPE products to include:
 
• Trash can liners
• Compost bins
• Shipping envelopes
• Paneling
• Lumber
• Landscaping ties
• Floor tile
 
HDPE is more rigid and harder than lower density materials. It also has higher tensile strength; four times that of low-density polyethylene. It is three times better in compressive strength and meets FDA requirements for direct food contact applications. HDPE is a versatile plastic with many uses, especially for packaging. It carries low risk of leaching and is readily recyclable into many goods such as:
 
• Laundry detergent bottles
• Oil bottles
• Pens
• Recycling container
• Floor tile
• Drainage pipe
• Lumber
• Benches
• Picnic tables
• Fencing
 
It is important to us that you understand that Atlantic Poly is doing our part to protect the environment through our use of recycled products in our processes. We also encourage you to consider recycling not only the common household items listed here, but any and all products that you notice marked with the "recyclable" label.

A lot of us have had it happen before when you either send or receive an item and the item that is inside it suffers a breakage during delivery. You can often tell in an instant and before you have even opened it that what is inside is broken because you can hear the rattle of the numerous pieces inside. Obviously this is something that you do not want to be happening. The best way to stop this from happening is by making sure that when you send any packages, you ensure that any fragile items are surrounded by adequate cushioning. Bubble wrap is the most effective and used product to protect your goods when shipping.

Since bubble wrap was invented in the late 1950's it has gone on to become a world wide product used on a daily basis. The bubble wrap that we have is available a vary of sizes, with the smallest usually being around 6mm in diameter and the larger ones being more than 25mm diameter. The different sizes are suitable for different needs. Smaller diameter sheets are generally stronger and more resistant to bursting so can provide good protection for more fragile items. On the other hand, the larger diameter sheeting provides a softer cushioning which is perfect for use on larger items that are not as susceptible to breakages.

Whether you are sending items during a move or it is for your commercial business Atlantic Poly has got you covered in helping your product be safe and secure with our bubble wrap.  It is extremely advisable to make sure you pack your goods properly and using bubble wrap to protect items is a very good way of doing so.
