Closed Cell Expanded Polyethylene Foam
Expanded polyethylene foam epe expanded polyethylene foam also known as epe is a molded semi rigid non crosslinked closed cell polyethylene foam that is often denser and stronger than its open cell counter parts.
Closed cell expanded polyethylene foam. Expanded polypropylene expanded polyethylene foam. Unlike polyurethane foam foamtech pe foam has the capability of being reheated in order to change its shape. Our pe foam is extruded in planks sheets or custom profile shapes. The epe foam material is a lightweight semi rigid flexible foam most commonly used in packaging for impact and shock absorption vibration dampening and surface protection.
It is a closed cell foam which is flexible and lightweight. Epe foam is a low cost expanded polyethylene foam with non crosslinked and closed cell structure. The consistent cell structure results in a foam with superior physical properties that have the same multi directional mechanical values. It is available in densities from 30 kg m to 300 kg m.
An environmentally friendly product it can be recycled easily and is 100 non toxic. Molded epe planks are made with a very uniform cell structure. Polyethylene foam is a strong and resilient closed cell foam ideally suited as a shock absorbing material in packaging and padding. Expanded polypropylene expanded polyethylene foam sometimes also referred to as bead board in the industry that provide outstanding energy absorption characteristics weight to strength ratio high.
Foamtech pe foam sheet is a closed cell cross linked expanded foam based on polyethylene polymer resin.
