  • We manufacture a wide range of foam products designed for various industries. Our offerings include:

    • Polyurethane (PU) Foam – Known for its cushioning and energy absorption properties, ideal for medical positioners, protective padding for packaging. Polyurethane is used in most furniture and bedding applications. Allied Atlanta offers an impressive variety of densities and firmnesses, including reticulated/dryfast and convoluted options. At Allied Foam Atlanta we bale 100% of our polyurethane scrap to be used in other recycled products.

    • Polyethylene (PE) Foam – A closed-cell foam used for shock absorption, excellent for low cost packaging applications. Certain polyethylene planks are made from recycled materials for a more sustainable packaging solution.

    • Crosslinked Polyethylene (XLPE) Foam – With it’s Class A surface and high-strength, smooth-finish, XLPE is a high-aend, reusable material used in variety of industries including medical device packaging, automotive, and e-commerce applications.

    • Expanded Polypropylene (EPP) – High-performance foam ideal for reusable trays, impact-resistant packaging, great for blocking and bracing.

    • Expanded Polyethylene (EPE) – This foam has a class A surface. Great for single use for packaging electronics, glassware, and sports padding, also ideal for flotation.

    • Plastic Corrugated Sheets – Rigid, moisture-resistant sheets used in reusable packaging and storage solutions. Used for dunnage internally, or totes of all kinds.

    • High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) – Used in industrial manufacturing for machine guards, cutting surfaces, and structural components.

    • Anti-Static Foams – Specialized foams designed to protect sensitive electronic components from electrostatic discharge (ESD). We have both polyurethane and polyethylene anti-static options.

  • We serve a wide variety of industries, including:

    • Medical – Medical-grade foams for positioners, protective padding, and packaging.

    • Automotive – Foam solutions for impact resistance, packaging, and custom dunnage.

    • Electronics – Anti-static foams and packaging for electronic components.

    • Marine – Buoyant, shock-resistant foams for flotation and insulation.

    • Aerospace – Lightweight, durable foam for aerospace components and packaging.

    • Sporting Goods – Protective sports padding and shock-absorbing materials.

    • Agriculture – Cushioning and protective foams for agricultural products.

    • Packaging – Custom foam packaging solutions for delicate and high-value items.

    • Food Processing – Safe, durable foams for equipment protection and food-grade surfaces.

    • Industrial Manufacturing – HDPE foams for machine guards, cutting boards, and other industrial uses.

  • Yes, we specialize in custom foam solutions tailored to your specific needs. Whether it's custom die-cut foam, molded foam, or specialized foam materials, our team works closely with you to create the perfect product for your application.

  • Choosing the right foam depends on factors such as cushioning needs, impact resistance, moisture exposure, and other performance requirements. Our team of experts can help you determine the best material and design based on your unique needs. Contact us, and we’ll guide you through the selection process.

  • We are committed to sustainability. We use eco-friendly materials where possible, and our manufacturing processes are designed to minimize waste and reduce environmental impact.

  • Yes, our products meet various industry standards and certifications, including:
