Packaging As it is approximately 98 per cent air, foam makes an ideal packaging product. It can be moulded into a variety of shapes and designs and is an excellent shock absorber. Food containers As well as being clean and hygienic, foam is also a great insulator and, as a result, is the perfect material for packaging food products. Thai EPP Foam uses no hazardous substances in any of its products, so customers are assured that their food is packed in the safest possible materials. The group provides packing foam to the fast food industry and makes heat-resistant containers for instant meals. Construction materials Foam is used in many aspects of construction. It is an excellent insulator and is often used in housing to keep rooms cool or warm. It is also used as a foundation in engineering or building projects on soft ground. Car parts The Thai EPP Foam helps to ensure the safety of drivers throughout the region by providing bumper cores (EPP or PIOCELAN moulded) and side-door safety cushions to some of the biggest names in motoring.
