Expanded Polystyrene (EPS)

Product Information
As EPS is made of 98% air, it is one of the lightest packaging materials in existence and therefore adds very little weight to packaging. This helps minimize transport costs and fuel emissions. It is also highly useful because it can be clearly marked with specific content like company logos, and labels can easily be attached directly to the packaging.

Applications of Expanded Polystyrene (EPS):

  1. Packaging
    Used for protecting fragile goods such as electronics, appliances, and pharmaceuticals.

  2. Thermal and Sound Insulation
    Widely used in construction for insulating walls, roofs, and floors.

  3. Food Industry
    Used for making disposable containers, such as food trays, cups, and packaging for fish or meat.

  4. Automotive Industry
    Used in car bumpers and for protecting interior components due to its shock-absorbing properties.

  5. Model Making and Art Projects
    Ideal for architectural models, crafts, and school projects due to its lightweight and easy-to-cut structure.

  6. Medical Packaging
    Ensures safe transport of temperature-sensitive items like vaccines and medicines.

F100

  

F100 is a specialized grade of Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) distinguished by its low-density composition, providing lightweight insulation with good thermal properties. This grade is commonly employed in applications where weight is a critical factor, such as in packaging solutions for fragile items where cushioning is essential but excessive weight is undesirable. F100 EPS is also utilized in lightweight construction projects where insulation is necessary but load-bearing capacity is not a primary concern, such as in decorative molding and temporary structures. Its low density makes it an economical choice for applications where structural strength is not the primary requirement, but thermal insulation and affordability are key considerations.
