Frequently Asked Questions

What is EPE foam, and why is it popular for packaging?

EPE (Expanded Polyethylene) foam is a lightweight, flexible, and durable closed-cell foam known for its shock absorption and moisture resistance. It’s widely used to protect fragile items during shipping (e.g., electronics, furniture) and as an eco-friendly alternative to plastic bubble wrap.

Is EPE foam waterproof?

Yes. Its closed-cell structure repels water, making it ideal for packaging perishables, marine equipment, or outdoor products exposed to humidity.

How does EPE foam compare to EPS (Styrofoam)?
  • Flexibility: EPE is softer and more pliable.
  • Moisture Resistance: EPE outperforms water-absorbent EPS.
  • Eco-Friendliness: EPE is recyclable; EPS is not.
What industries use EPE foam?
  • E-commerce: Custom packaging inserts.
  • Automotive: Door panel insulation, bumper guards.
  • Construction: Pipe insulation, HVAC padding.
  • Sports: Yoga mats, helmet liners.
 Is EPE foam recyclable or eco-friendly?

Yes. EPE foam is 100% recyclable, and many manufacturers use recycled content. It’s also reusable, reducing waste in logistics and storage.

Can EPE foam handle extreme temperatures?

EPE foam operates in -40°C to +80°C, making it suitable for cold chain packaging (e.g., pharmaceuticals, frozen foods).

Why is EPE foam cost-effective for businesses?
  • Reduced Damage: Lowers return/refund costs.
  • Lightweight: Lowers shipping fees.
  • Reusable: Saves on repurchasing packaging.
 How is EPE foam manufactured?

Polyethylene resin is expanded with butane or nitrogen gas, creating a closed-cell foam structure that’s heat-laminated into sheets, rolls, or custom shapes.

Can EPE foam be customized for unique products?

Yes. It’s easily die-cut, laminated, or molded into custom inserts, tubes, or sheets for precise product protection (e.g., glassware, machinery).

 Why choose EPE foam over PU foam?
  • Water Resistance: EPE doesn’t absorb moisture.
  • Cost: Cheaper for high-volume packaging.
  • Recyclability: PU foam is harder to recycle.
