1. With the improvement of science and technology, people have begun to use more and more materials to make the tools we need. EPE FOAM is one of the very important materials, EPE foam is also known as polyethylene foam sheet, according to scientists, such a material is not only very environmentally friendly and pollution-free, but also has many advantages, including moisture-proof and shockproof. Sound insulation and so on, therefore, it is in the market by the majority of builders like, some people still do not understand its characteristics and uses.

2. Characteristics of EPE foam sheet: EPE foam is non-crosslinked closed cell structure, also known as polyethylene foam , is a new type of environmental protection packaging material. It is composed of numerous independent bubbles produced by physical foaming of low density polyethylene resin. It overcomes the disadvantages of fragile, deformation and poor resilience of ordinary styrofoam. It has many advantages, such as waterproof, moisture-proof, shockproof, sound insulation, heat preservation, good plasticity, strong toughness, recycling, environmental protection, strong impact resistance and so on. It also has good chemical resistance. It is an ideal substitute for traditional packaging materials. Widely used in electronic appliances, instruments and meters, computers, audio, medical equipment, industrial computer case, lighting, handicrafts, glass, ceramics, home appliances, spraying, furniture, wine and gift packaging, hardware products, toys, melons and fruits, leather shoes, daily necessities and other products packaging. After adding antistatic agent and flame retardant, its excellent performance is more obvious. EPE foam is also widely used in elastic lining of handbags and bags, industrial production of sound insulation, heat insulation materials, agricultural heat insulation materials, aquaculture floating equipment, protective pads for sports goods, water operation lifesaving equipment, family, hotel floor decoration, padding and so on. Its pipes are widely used in air conditioning, baby carriage, children's toys, furniture and other industries. EPE and all kinds of fabric bonding products are good interior decoration materials for all kinds of vehicles and homes. EPE and aluminum foil or aluminized film composite products have excellent anti-infrared uv ability, is some chemical equipment cold storage and camping equipment car shade substitute.

3. EPE foam uses: EPE foam has special advantages, not only does not pollute the environment, and can be recycled repeatedly, so EPE foam material is a new, sunrise never fade material. With the advance of time and continuous product development and application, EPE foam material will be more widely used in packaging and filling materials. At present, EPE foam foaming material production has been developed in the Pearl River Delta, the use of this material has been more common in all walks of life, and the production and use of this material enterprises have achieved good economic benefits, the results are very remarkable. Now the material production is gradually expanding to Zhejiang, Shanghai, Shandong and other provinces and cities. But in fact, the production line enterprises are far from meeting the needs of the domestic market of all walks of life, and there are many provinces and cities in the blank area, the urgent need for this new material to fill the packaging, filling industry needs. Because EPE expander foam material is a new type of environmental protection packaging, filling material. Its superior characteristics, more and more recognized by people, so its use will continue to expand and innovation. Especially in packaging and other industrial materials, it is better than the traditional material performance, lower cost, higher grade, beautiful and generous, better effect. In addition, it shows its wide world in agricultural and sideline product packaging materials. At the same time, EPE foam sheet can also be deeply processed, only need to prepare the epe foam laminating machine, laminating machine, on the surface of EPE sheet coated HDPE film, aluminum plating film, plastic coated paper, plastic coated cloth, etc., after the film coated EPE sheet, not only improve the mechanical strength, But also can improve the original performance and attached to print a variety of patterns, words, expand product publicity. And the composite sheet can be widely used in the lining of the box, life jacket, heat insulation, moisture-proof tent and other inner lining materials, economic benefits with double growth.

4. believe that many people who are interested in epe foam or who are ready to do relevant business are interested in this issue. EPE foam as a new type of packaging materials, in the market of our country is bigger and bigger, this is a sunrise industry, because compared with other packaging materials, pe foam has good vibration resistance, waterproof, colorless, tasteless, non-toxic, the main is a kind of environmentally friendly products at the same time, so the pe foam in the packaging industry of our country will slowly in proportion of more and more big, If the boss of a certain resource customer wants to enter the epe foam industry also want to start the project as soon as possible.

5. At the same time of the start of the project, it is necessary to have a certain understanding of the sales and price of pe foam. So, how much is pe foam a catty? Or, how is pe foam sold?

EPE Foam sheet extrusion machine production mainly concentrated in the eastern coastal areas in China, there developed economy, population, packing also have the most consumption, mainly in jiangsu, zhejiang, and guangdong province, these southern provinces, where the competition is fierce, epe foam price is lower, but if in the provinces to the north, not competitive, foam prices will be higher. Generally, the price of a cubic meter in the south is usd50. If we use the equipment of our factory, it can reach 15kg per cubic meter, reducing the production cost. The machines of other factories cannot be opened so light, and it will cost an extra usd500 a day. The average price of pe foam is usd3.0 per kg. This is the price of southern provinces with large foam consumption. Compared with provinces with less fierce competition in the north, if there is only one epe foam production factory within 200 kilometers, the price will more than double. That is to say, the profit will be higher in places with less competition in the north.

6. Finally, if you plan to make money on the epe foam sheet extrusion machine of the project, please contact Dongguan Tuopai Machinery Co., LTD., our company has 20 years of history in the epe foam sheet extrusion machine and  equipment production industry, the current scale is the first in the country, the machine is sold to 60 countries.
