Expanded Polypropylene (EPP) is a trustworthy and well-tested material used in a wide variety of industrial applications.
Thanks to its lightweight, structural, thermal and acoustic insulation properties, EPP helps to increase performance and reduce the cost of manufacturing equipment in the HVACR sector. Expanded polypropylene can be manufactured in a wide range of densities, from 15 to 250 g/l.
The highly versatile closed-cell bead foam thus obtained offers a unique range of additional properties, which are widely used by industrial manufacturers:
- Light weight
- Acoustical absorption
- Airtightness
- Thermal insulation
- Buoyancy
- Water and chemical resistance
- Exceptionally high strength to weight ratio
- 100% recyclability
Combined with other components and materials, EPP is successfully used in technical parts to combine strength and lightness and thus optimize manufacturing costs.
