Materials We Fabricate
Polyurethane (PU) Foam
Polyurethane foam is a versatile, open-cell material known for its excellent cushioning and energy absorption properties. It is commonly used in medical positioners, custom packaging inserts, and protective padding for a wide varity of products. PU foam is also frequently used in seating applications, including furniture. Allied Foam Atlanta also specializes in convoluted foam (egg-crate) options.
Applications:
Medical Positioners | Custom Packaging Inserts | Protective Padding | Seating Applications
Crosslinked Polyethylene (XLPE) Foam
Crosslinked PE, called XLPE or Crosslink, foam is a Class A surface, crosslinked version of polyethylene, providing a finer cell structure, increased tensile strength, and a smoother finish. It is often used in packaging for reusable applications, or when a higher-end aesthetic is needed.
Applications: Medical Device Packaging | Industrial Totes | Racking & Stora | Protective Padding
Expanded Polyethylene (EPE)
Expanded polyethylene foam is a flexible, closed-cell material that provides reliable shock absorption and surface protection. It is a class A surface that is more cost effective option than XLPE, but better for single use applications. DID YOU KNOW: EPE is also used as flotation foam and has Boyance ratings, great for the marine industry.
Applications: Glassware Protection | Sports Padding | Flotation Foam | Consumer Electronic Packaging
Expanded Polypropylene (EPP)
Expanded polypropylene is a high-performance, closed-cell bead foam known for its high impact resistance and excellent energy return. It is lightweight and durable.
Applications:
Packaging | High-Impact Cushioning | Blocks and Bracing
Polyethylene (PE) Foam
Polyethylene foam is a closed-cell material that offers excellent shock absorption, water resistance, and insulation properties. It is widely used for protective case inserts, and foam padding and packaging of all types. We offer Polyethylene made from recycled material providing customers with a greener, more cost effective option.
Applications: Protective Case Inserts | Custom Packaging Inserts
Plastic Corrugated Sheets & Fabricated Dunnage or “Totes”
Plastic corrugated, is a rigid, lightweight material used for reusable packaging and storage solutions. It is commonly fabricated into custom dunnage for automotive supply chains and protective dividers in shipping containers. Its durability and moisture resistance make it a preferred alternative to cardboard.
Applications: Durable Storage Containers | Protective Dividers in Shipping Containers | Reusable Packaging
High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE)
HDPE is a rigid, high-strength plastic known for its chemical resistance and low moisture absorption. It is frequently used for machine guards and cutting surfaces, such as food-grade cutting boards. HDPE is also fabricated into structural components for industrial applications due to its excellent durability.
Applications: Machine Guards | Cutting Surfaces (Food Grade) | Structural Components for Industrial Use
Anti-Static Foams
Anti-static foams are specifically engineered to dissipate electrostatic discharge (ESD), protecting sensitive electronic components from damage. They are commonly used for circuit board packaging and semiconductor shipping trays. These foams are available in both PE and PU bases, depending on the application requirements.
