Flame Retardant XPE Foam Material XLPE Insulation Foam Material For
Building
Crosslinked Polyethylene foam common abbreviations XPE foam, XLPE
foam, AEPE foam, etc. Among them, XPE and XLPE are commonly used
abroad.It is made of low-density polyethylene (LDPE), AC foaming
agent and other powders after being melted, mixed and extruded, and
then foamed at high temperature. XPE foam has good water
resistance, moisture resistance, insulation, shock absorption,
cushioning, rebound, thermal insulation, weather resistance, aging
resistance, internal corrosion resistance, easy processing and
quality.

FAQ:
Q1:Is XLPE foam recyclable?
Due to it is crosslinked and close cell, it is hard to recyclable.
But the wasted pe foam could be reused again, like to be remade
to be mattress, underlay, furniture filling etc
Q2:Does your foam work with adhesives?
Our foam does work well with adhesives. PE foam tape is one of the
foam application
Q3:Can you do custom design?
Of course,Color,Logo,Size,Pattern and Materials all could be
customized, we have the professional technical staffs.
Q4:What is the difference between polyethylene and polyurethane
foam?
Polyethylene is a firm, closed-cell foam.It is also sometimes used
as a top layer over softer foam in order to provide better footing
while the lower, softer foam adds some shock absorption. What is
polyurethane foam? Polyurethane is a softer, open-cell type of foam
that is made in varying degrees of firmness.
