Durable and Versatile

One of the key advantages of polyethylene is its high compression rates, allowing it to maintain its resilience even under repeated impacts. This characteristic also grants the material excellent load-bearing capabilities. These properties make it suitable for a wide array of applications. From packaging to case inserts, floatation devices, flooring and acoustic underlay, and even camping mats. Its soft nature proves particularly beneficial in packaging applications, as it can effectively absorb impacts, safeguarding the contents within.

At The Rubber Company, our production facilities are equipped to cater to your specific requirements. We can transform polyethylene into an assortment of formats, including sheets, rolls, strips, gaskets and seals. Additionally, we offer the option of plain or adhesive-backed polyethylene for easy installation. Our polyethylene foam comes in four different densities – 18, 24, 33 and 45 kg/m³, each with a unique set of properties. For precise specifications, we recommend referring to our material spec sheet to select the density for your intended use.

With its remarkable durability, adaptability, and customisability, polyethylene foam remains a top choice for various industries.
