friction (clings to surface) allows Microfoam to be an excellent
interleave and wrap for any product worth protecting
- High
melting point reduces possibility of sticking to finished
product - excellent through shrink tunnels
- Light
weight reduces shipping costs and easier to handle
- FDA
approval for direct contact with food
- Excellent
thermal properties - Microfoam can be recycled

mill spec PPP-C-1797A (as well as others)
Microfoam "Polypropylene" Composites
Composites (Microfoam married to another
substrate) allow you a unique approach to heavy duty applications
where perhaps more than one packaging material is used. Microfoam
combined with another product, such as chipboard, film, corrugated,
non-woven materials, etc., become Microfoam composites.
Composites will be of interest to end-users that need strength,
durability, or re-usability in their packaging applications.
Ipsco maintains a complete inventory of
Microfoam in all thick nesses. Sheets and die cuts
are also available.
