    What is Non-Cross-Linked Polyethylene Foam?

    Non-cross linked Polyethylene foam is sometimes referred to as PE foam and is a non-abrasive, water resistant, flexible, and lightweight material.

    Unlike cross-linked polyethylene foam, non-cross-linked polyethylene foam is extruded. Air is injected into the manufacturing cells, which then combine with neighbouring cells to form a non-cross-linked polyethylene foam.

    Standard sheet sizes are 1200mm x 2000mm with a thickness range of between 50mm and 100mm; however, the product can be cut and shaped to meet a variety of requirements.
