Polyethylene (PE) foam is a thermoplastic material often used for cushioning in packages, due to the very strong and resilient qualities of Polyethylene (PE) foamit makes it an ideal material for uses including shock absorbing, vibration deadening, acoustic and thermal insulation, and cushioning Polyethylene (PE) foam in packaging applications.

A.S Packaging supply PE foam and rubber strips to many manufacturing industries. Self adhesive backing can be added to any Polyethylene foam strip. Polyethylene (PE) foam strips provide excellent seals in a whole host of applications. We also frequently supply a range of plain or self adhesive backed expanded Polyethylene foam strip to solve issues such as air flow control, cushioning, water leakage and anti vibration problems.

General Characteristics of Polyethylene (PE) foam

• Closed cell cross linked structure making it impermeable to air and water and therefore an ideal material for sealing against air and/or water.
• Lightweight.
• Relatively cheap.
• Strong rigidity, and tear strength.
• Strong thermal insulating properties.
