Polyethylene
Custom Polyethylene Foam for Packaging & Shipping
Index Packaging fabricates corner pads, end caps, load separators, cushions, and package liners from polyethylene (PE) closed-cell foams in varying densities and colors to your specs. Everything is made in the USA in our New Hampshire manufacturing facilities. Visit our Foam Selector for material options.
PE foam is durable, lightweight, resilient, and the perfect material for protecting products that are high in value and relatively fragile.
- Great for packaging heavier items like furniture and appliances.
- Excellent vibration dampening for delicate instruments.
- High resistance to chemicals and moisture for electronics.
- Compare to Ethafoam™ brand foam.
- Easily custom die-cut into PE foam planks, pads, blocks, and shapes for tools, instruments, and equipment.
- Abrasion resistant.
- PE foam sheets can be cut to size.
- Perfect for blocking and bracing in shipment.
We can recommend the best PE foam density based on the fragility of your product; handling, temperature, and transportation conditions; cushioning requirement calculations; vibration assessments; product design considerations; and presentation aesthetics for branding.
