Polyethylene Foam Packaging

Polyethylene Foam is a soft, durable, lightweight, closed cell material. Its closed cell structure offers a protective packaging material with resistance to shock and vibration, as well as moisture and chemicals, preventing the growth of bacteria and mold.

Polyethylene foam is a popular packaging material because of its high strength and tear resistance. It can absorb impacts and return to form after compression, with high resilience properties it can be stored for years in a compressed state and still return to its original form. Polyethylene foam can be used to cushion, protect and insulate items in a similar way to bubble wrap.                            

Polyethylene foam is a lightweight and thin material offering high levels of protection from scratches and scrapes. It is also used as a shock absorber to resist impact or as void fill in cartons. Foam is a non-abrasive material meaning it is safe to use on all surfaces including polished wood and shiny metals.

As foam is thin and one of the lightest protection materials available it keeps freight to a minimum, adding little or no extra costs. This with the bonus of it being reusable makes it a popular packaging material for e-commerce companies that offer returns.
