Coroplast, also called pp plate sheet ("Fluted Polypropylene Sheet"), is a lightweight (hollow structure), non-toxic, waterproof, shockproof, long lifespan, corrosion preventive material. Compared with cardboard, Coroplast has the advantages of waterproof, colorfast and corrosion preventive.
The Coroplast composition can be altered with anti-static conductive masterbatch. This particular masterbatch produces a conductive, anti-static plastic hollow board sheet. (Conductive plate surface resistivity can be controlled between 103 ~ 105; anti-static sheet surface resistivity can be controlled between 106 ~ 1011.)

Coroplast Applications
Coroplast is sturdy, light, resilient, and inexpensive, making it ideal for indoor/outdoor signage, electronics, packaging, machinery, light industry, postal services, food, pharmaceuticals, pesticides, household appliances, advertising, decoration, stationery, magneto-optical technology, bio-engineering and other medical and health industries.
Coroplast is widely used in advertising background, stationery materials, industrial packaging products, shock, etc. The most common are crates, detachable combination boxes, product packaging boxes and boxes in the partition and so on. Currently widely used international plastic materials. It is also used for some animal cages. Coroplast received worldwide attention when the material was used to make an extremely light, folding kayak (Oru Folding Kayak).
Because of Coroplast's durability and weather resistant properties it is commonly used for outdoor advertising, billboards, and signage.
Modifying Coroplast Sheets
All Coroplast™ twin-wall profile sheets can be modified with additives, which are melt-blended into the sheet to meet the specific needs of the customer. Special products that require additives include: ultra violet protection, anti-stat, flame retardant, custom colors, corrosion inhibitors, and static-dissipation.
