Fish
Providing protection and insulation, EPS boxes keep fish
and seafood fresh during transit.
Fresh produce
Delicate fruits, vegetables and mushrooms are protected from bruising in EPS boxes.
The boxes insulate to maintain optimum freshness, are resis-tant to moisture and do not break apart in unfavourable
conditions.
Cookers, fridges,
dish/washing
machines
are cost effectively protected by cleverly-designed, minimal EPS packaging, often used in combi-nation with other plastics. The result is improved ware-house handling, reduced returns and customer satisfaction when a product arrives at their home in perfect
condition. |
Computers,TVs
and other fragile, high value items are protected by EPS packs, not only from being dropped in transit, but also from damage whilst they are stacked in the warehouse.
Automotives
EPS moulds are individually designed to fill complex voids in floors, door and roof linings. This allows the designer to change the height and shape of the interior.
Electrical
EPS protects against dust, damp and rough handling. It can be given antistatic coating to protect sensitive microchips.
Medical & Pharmaceutical Life-saving items such as vaccines and internal organs are kept safe
and insulated when transported in EPS packs. |
Horticulture
Plants are raised in EPS trays because they retain warmth, maintain an ambient temperature and are water resistant. And, their rigidity makes them easy to handle.
Bicycle Helmets
The same shock absorption properties of EPS make it per-fect for bicycle hel-mets and infant car seats.
Housing
EPS moulds are used to form a Lego-style framework into which concrete is poured.
Buildings can be erected quickly and enjoy high levels of acoustic and thermal insulation.
