EPE Fitments
Cellular
Expanded Polyethylene or EPE as it is known is
a closed cell, non-cross linked product expanded
from low-density polyethylene resins using eco
friendly Butane as a blowing agent. EPE has
an excellent characteristic of thermal insulation,
elasticity and shock absorption. A unique heat
lamination is used to build up the thickness from
6mm to 100mm and more as well as to form a
laminate and composite multi-layered structure of
homogenous bonding with taper free parallelness. EPE
is CFC free, available in standard forms of rolls
and sheet. Non standard cut sheets, die cut
components, adhesive backed components,
pouches/bags, CD covers, slitted rolls, ready to
use fabricated fitments etc. of specific
tailor made sizes are offered on specific requirements.
EPE has strong chemical resistance and is
weather/ waterproof. It is a versatile product
that is flexible; offers excellent cushioning; can
regain shape after shock; is fracture, shatter and
crumble proof as well as is virtually impermeable
for liquids. The product finds widespread use in
Packaging, Sport good, Footwear, Thermal
insulation, Automobile, Construction, Defence and
Marine Industries.
