EPP (expanded polypropylene) is a unique raw material that has many important characteristics making it suitable for a wide range of applications. Some striking selection criteria are: energy absorption, low weight and high thermal stability.
EPP is in particular used for expensive and vulnerable electronics products or molded parts, such as climate-control and automotive industries parts.
Despite its low weight, EPP can absorb large amounts of energy and has a remarkable ability to restore its shape after being subjected to static or dynamic loading.
The deformation is very balanced, independent of the direction of the impact/ load.
EPP is temperature resistant, absorbs hardly any water and is effectively resistant to chemicals and oils.
High energy absorption and lightweight product
Excellent repetitive impact performance
Excellent temperature resistance
Durability
Recycled content
Low/zero air emissions & hazardous substances
Easy, non-hazardous maintenance
End-of-life management keeps materials out of landfills (e.g., reuse, recycling, return to manufacturers)
Nontoxic and food safety
Low life cycle cost
Excellent oil and chemical resistance, weather resistance
Flexibility makes it easy to handle products
Remarkable ability to restore its shape after static and dynamic loading
Possible to recycle by non-crosslink (reduction facility)
Choice of various expansion ratio (raw material supplier)
Excellent dimensional accuracy
It has low water absorption
Excellent insulation performance
Environmentally friendly
