EPE Foam
Lightweight EPE (expanded polyethylene) foam with a closed-cell structure that combines high compressive strength with cushioning impact resistance. Ideal for packaging fragile products, cushioning corners, and protecting surfaces during handling and transport.
Key Features
- Featuring lightweight yet high-strength properties, it is lightweight but offers high compressive and impact resistance
- It has excellent cushioning properties, effectively absorbing and dispersing external forces to protect packaged items from vibrations and impacts
- Pearl cotton provides certain thermal insulation and soundproofing properties, offering additional protection during transportation and storage
- Pearl cotton has excellent waterproof properties, effectively preventing water penetration and protecting packaged items from moisture
- Applications: It is applied in electronics, furniture and household items, sports equipment, and food and beverages
- It protects these items from damage during transportation and storage

Frequently Asked Questions
How strong is the adhesive and can it be customized?
We offer multiple adhesion levels — light (peel force 3-8 g/cm), medium (10-25 g/cm), and heavy (30-80 g/cm) — matched to your surface type and application duration. Adhesion can be tuned to your specific substrate; send a sample and we specify the correct grade.
What thickness options are available?
Standard thicknesses range from 30 to 150 microns depending on the film series and substrate. Thinner films (30-60 μm) are typical for delicate finishes; thicker films (80-150 μm) provide heavy-duty protection during machining and transport.
Can I add my logo or custom printing?
Yes. We offer 1-4 color printing with logos, text, product identification, or patterns — free of charge for orders above the MOQ. This is common for branded product packaging or process identification (batch number, orientation arrows, warnings).
What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
MOQ starts at 500 rolls for standard films and 1,000 rolls for custom-printed or specialty formulations. Sample orders below MOQ are available for evaluation and testing.
How long does production and shipping take?
Standard stock items ship within 3-5 business days. Custom orders (printing, non-standard sizes, specialty adhesives) require 15-30 days production. Sea freight to North America typically adds 25-35 days; air freight and DHL options available for urgent orders.
