EPE is a new type of environmentally-safe foaming material for strong cushioning, shock proofing capabilities. It is flexible and light with great elasticity. It has good cushioning capabilities by absorbing and spreading the impact from outside while bending itself. It has avoided the weaknesses of traditional rubber foams like easily braking, distortion and bad rebounding features. EPE foam products have good capabilities such as heat preservation, moisture proofing, heat and sound insulation, anti-friction, anti-ageing and rot durability, etc. EPE is also available with antistatic properties. EPE is a closed cell extruded non cross linked polyethylene foam manufactured from low density polyethylene as base material with blowing agent of LPG, both are Eco-friendly.
Cross Linked PE is smooth and flat surfaced .It has excellent mechanical properties .It is extremely resilient, with high load bearing capacity .It has good dimensional stability .It is easily thermoformable .It is non-corrosive, non-abrasive .It has low water absorption . It has very good high temperature tolerance. In medical applications it is used because of its very fine cell and smooth feel. Standard Colors are white (sometimes referred to as natural) and grey. Other colors are available as special runs. Cross Linked PE is available in a large number of grades with varying density, shore hardness and other mechanical properties. Sheet size is available from 600/ 1700 mm to 1200/ 2600 mm. Range of thickness of sheet/ bun is from 1 mm to 50 mm.
