Details

PE Foam is made of poly-ethylene which has grown in popularity as a more environmentally-friendly alternative to styrofoam (polystyrene, or PS). It is cleaner, easier to recycle, more durable and better protects sensitive products in transit.

BENEFITS
Made with Low Density PE (LDPE) resin, the Expanded Polyethylene Foam (or PE Foam for short) offers many benefits for packing a multitude of products. Beneficial properties include;
  • highly resilient
  • buoyant
  • lightweight
  • shock absorbent
  • water resistant
  • flexible
  • odorless
  • non-toxic
  • strong cushioning properties
It’s no wonder PE Foam has become a packaging material of choice for many industries, especially those producing equipment needing strong cushioning during transportation.

HOW ITS MADE
Virgin LDPE plastic resins are melted and transferred through a screw in a barrel. High-pressure gas is then injected to foam the liquid plastic. Imagine injecting pressurised steam into cold milk to froth cappucinos, and you get the picture. The resulting foamed PE (a.k.a. Expanded PE Foam) is forced through a small die opening, expanding many times its original thickness as it exits into atmospheric pressure (open air).
We use solar energy in our manufacturing, reducing our carbon footprint by 25%, making our PE Foam greener than before.

VARIETY OF ROLLS
PE Foam can be extruded to conform to various specifications – width, thickness, length and colour.
