Foam Packaging
Foam packaging covers polymer cushioning materials: flexible polyethylene (PE) foam, polyurethane (PU) foam, pre-moulded expanded polystyrene (EPS), memory foam and foam inserts cut to the product's shape. It is used instead of bubble wrap when a sensitive item needs a fitted liner or insert that holds it in place. Select by foam type, density (kg/m³), thickness, form (sheet, roll or moulded) and anti-static (ESD) grade for electronics.

About this category
Foam packaging is a protective-material category covering several polymeric foam types that differ in chemistry, properties and applications. The category includes polyethylene foam (PE Foam) that provides lightweight flexible cushioning suitable for sensitive products, polyurethane foam (PU Foam) that may be used in flexible or rigid configurations depending on formulation, expanded polystyrene (EPS) used in industrial packaging with pre-molded configurations, memory foam and foam engraved to match product shapes. Models differ in density in kilograms per cubic meter documented in the product's specifications, in documented thickness, and in form between sheets, rolls and molded shapes. Models differ in chemical resistance and heat resistance according to the polymer type; universal resistance across all conditions is not assumed across the category. Models differ in anti-static (ESD) protection depending on the formulation; anti-static foam uses specialized formulations to protect electronic components. Suitability of a single foam type for every product should not be assumed; foam selection depends on product sensitivity, weight and the transport environment. Bubble wrap and air pillows are excluded from this category. Buyers select foam packaging models based on foam type, density, thickness, form and the target product.
