EPP Foam Sheet,EPP Foam Material,EPP Foam Supplier

PMPF offers a variety of high dimension EPP blocks and sheets.
EPP is used in the fabrication of a variety of high dimension EPP blocks and sheets. Blocks can be molded up to 1000MM x 1200MM x 105MM and used to die-cut or wire-cut parts. These blocks or sheets of resilient EPP are used most regularly by prototypers, laminators, fabricators and hot wire system companies. EPP can be hot-wired, cut into shapes, skived, machined or die-cut into packaging end caps. It can also be used to make sheets, planks or prototypes for different applications: namely in the automobile and recreational sector, packaging and protective gear, etc.. High dimension EPP blocks are a good solution for small volume productions, to test parts before investing in tooling or prototypes.

Foam materials, including EPP foam, EPE foam and EPS foam have specific qualities that suit various uses. The following brief descriptions provide more information on these materials:

EPS (Expanded Polystyrene) Foam

EPS can be manufactured in nearly unlimited shapes and sizes with a broad range of physical properties.

It is one of the foam materials most resistant to moisture absorption. Although molded EPS has a low water vapor transmission rate, it is not a vapor barrier. It is acceptable for cold storage applications.
Additionally, EPS molded products are resistant to virtually all aqueous media including dilute acids and alkalis, as well as water-soluble alcohols and silicones. EPS products have limited resistance to paraffin oil, vegetable oils, diesel fuel, and Vaseline?.

EPP (Expanded Polypropylene) Foam

EPP beads produce a low-density closed-cell foam with excellent energy absorption characteristics. The material has excellent recoverability from repeated shocks and deformations. Foams molded from these beads also retain their high degree of dimensional stability when exposed to temperature extremes.

EPE (Expanded Polyethylene) Foam

EPE beads produce a very flexible closed-cell foam which offers a high degree of resiliency. This material can withstand repetitive deformations and still maintain its dimensions and cushioning ability.

In addition to foam materials such as EPP foam, EPE foam and EPS foam, PMPF also works with additional engineering grade materials, including copolymer grades of expanded foams. If you're unsure about which material will meet your needs, you can be confident that the PMPF team can make an expert recommendation customized to your situation.
