Polyethylene is a closed cell foam, also referred to as a PE foam or LDPE foam. The material starts off as a thermoplastic which is then blown into a foam format. This is a highly durable as well as versatile product.
The high compression rates that polyethylene offers enable it to maintain its resilience under repeated impact. It also gives the material excellent load bearing characteristics. The incredible versatility of this product enables you to use it in almost all applications. However, our customers often use it as; packaging, case inserts, flotation, flooring and acoustic underlay, camping mats to name but a few. The soft nature of the material makes it particularly useful in packaging applications as it is able to absorb impacts without damaging the contents of the package.
