    Overview

    Expanded polyethylene (EPE) is a lightweight and durable thermoplastic. Made up of millions of tiny bubbles, EPE offers a lot of strength and rigidity for packaging a wide range of products. EPE can hold several items at once with very high shock absorption from heavy industrial materials to small and fragile items. EPE is also fully recyclable and can easily be melted and reshaped for a purpose beyond your product packaging. Our polyethylene foam inserts are available in a wide range of densities and colors.
