Polyethylene Foam

There is a wide range of polyethylene foams on the market and we stock a number of these different grades to give our customers a wide choice and to be able to use the right foam for the right purpose. Polyethylene foams are typically about 28kg in density and therefore lend themselves very well to be used to provide good protection for all types of items especially larger & heavier items. These types of foam come in varying thicknesses ie 25mm, 40mm, 50mm, 60mm, 100mm & 120mm. From these nominal thicknesses we are able to cut down or laminate up to infinite thicknesses….within reason! All of these foams are supplied in sheet form for example 2m x 1m or 2m x 1.2m.

Polyethylene foams are very good to work with and can be die cut, welded, glued or even routed.

Here at Wessex, we stock Stratocell, Jiffy foam, Polylam, Ethafoam & Plastazote as well as Neopolen for which we are the appointed UK distributor. Neopolen is an excellent beaded polyethylene foam made by BASF in Germany.

In addition we also stock pink anti-static Stratocell.

Plastazote is available in a wide range of grades and we are able to supply any of these, but typically we have plentiful stocks of LD18, LD29, LD45 & LD24FR.
