Research Summary
EPE foam, short for Expanded Polyethylene foam, is a lightweight and versatile packaging material known for its excellent cushioning and protective properties. It is produced by expanding polyethylene resin through a controlled process, resulting in a closed-cell foam structure with numerous tiny air-filled pockets. EPE foam is soft to the touch and provides exceptional shock absorption and insulation capabilities. It is widely used in the packaging industry to protect fragile items during shipping and storage, often in the form of sheets, rolls, or custom-cut inserts. Additionally, EPE foam is utilized in various applications such as automotive components, sports equipment, and construction insulation due to its lightweight, water-resistant, and mold-resistant characteristics.
