What is profile foam?

Shock-absorbing profile foam, also known in the market as foam profile or slotted tubular foam, is a type of foam made of recyclable polyethylene that is produced by extrusion in specific geometric shapes (such as U, L, V, and O shapes).

Why profiled polyethylene foam?

This product has unique features due to its closed-cell structure:

Excellent elasticity: Quickly returns to its original shape after impact.
Very light weight: Does not impose additional burden on your cargo.
Resistance to moisture and chemicals: Prevents water or moisture from penetrating the equipment.

 

The most important applications of profile foam

Many people think that only bubble wrap should be used for packaging, but foam corners and profiles are much stronger supplements. Here are the main uses of this product:

1. Protect the legs and edges of furniture and chairs

When going down narrow stairs, the most damage is done to the legs of the sofa. By placing perforated foam around the legs, even if the sofa hits the wall hard, there will be no scratches or dents on the wood or metal of the sofa.

2. Safe packaging of expensive glass, mirrors, and paintings

The edges of the glass of dining tables, LED and various monitors or mirrors are extremely brittle and fragile. The U-shaped foam profile is easily mounted on the edge of the glass and prevents it from chipping or cracking due to the vibrations of the truck.
