Microfoam Polypropylene Foam

Selling the uniqueness of Microfoam may make you a problem solver as well as provide you with higher profit margins. Pactive Microfoam is the only "Polypropylene" foam on the market.

  • Less abrasive than competitive materials
  • Selective 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
  • Meets mill spec PPP-C-1797A (as well as others)

Composites (Microfoam married to another substrate) allows 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., becomes 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.
