Polyethylene Foam

Polyethylene foams are offered in a broad range of densities ranging from 1.2 pcf (pounds per cubic foot) to 9 pcf, making it an ideal candidate for use in protective packaging over a wide range of product weight, product size and fragility.
Polyethylene (PE) foams are widely used in protective packaging applications because they possess a number of superior attributes:
• Extruded or laminated PE foams are extremely tough and resilient.
• End caps and protective pads fashioned from PE can be repeatedly deflected, and will return to their original shape with little or no reduction in protective performance.
• PE foam is closed cell, and performs well on both chemical resistance and low moisture absorption.
