Black PE foam sheet 600x400x50

Black PE Foam Sheet 600 × 400 × 50 mm – Absolute Maximum Cushioning

A five-centimeter layer of foamed polyethylene in deep black is the highest level of mechanical protection available "off-the-shelf". The 600 × 400 mm format and 23 kg/m³ (≈ 23 g/m²) density mean a five-fold higher shock-absorbing capacity than standard 10 mm foam, with a surprisingly low self-weight. An ideal choice when transporting turbines, collector's sculptures, carbon bumpers, or any cargo where damage is not an option.

🧩 What is PE foam?

Polyethylene foam (LDPE) is created when a foaming gas expands the polymer granules, forming a closed cell structure. Each cell acts like a micro air cushion: lightweight, resilient, and hydrophobic.

• 🔬 Composition: pure LDPE – zero PVC, zero plasticizers.
• 🛡️ Physical characteristics: dust-free, easy to cut, die-cut, and CNC machine.
• 🌡️ Operating range: –40 °C ... +90 °C without losing elasticity.
• 🧪 Chemical neutrality: does not react with oils, lubricants, detergents.
• ♻️ Recycling: LDPE code 4 – returns as regranulate after grinding.

🧪 PE foam properties – damping, elasticity

• 🛡️ 360° XXXL Damping – 50 mm absorbs > 97 % of impact energy*.
• 🪶 Shape memory – compresses under load, returns to form when released.
• 🎨 Elegant black – masks scratches, dust, and tape marks.
• 🤫 Resonance damping – minimizes vibrations in land, sea, and air transport.

*Typical value, ASTM D1596 test, density 23 kg/m³, load ≤ 0.4 kg/cm².

💧 Moisture resistance and chemical neutrality

• 🌧️ Hydrophobic barrier – it doesn't soak, doesn't get moldy.
• 🛡️ Corrosion protection – separates metal from moisture and oxygen.
• 🧴 Chemical safe – neutral to oils, lubricants, cosmetics.
• 🍯 Indirect contact with food – odorless and non-toxic (no certificate for direct contact).
• 🌡️ Thermal stability – full elasticity from –40 °C to +90 °C.

📦 Applications in transport and logistics

• 🌀 Wrapping traction engines, concert columns, bronze sculptures.
• 📑 Super-thick interleaves in steel boxes and sea containers.
• 🔄 Void-fill – filling free spaces in mega-boxes (Fefco XL).
• 🛡️ Milled inserts under 23″ rims, battery modules, museum exhibits.

🏭 Industries using 50 mm black PE foam

• 🚀 Aerospace & defence - avionics, composite panels, radar housings.
• 🔋 E-mobility - HV modules, inverters, cooling systems.
• 🎼 Stage & event - 24″ subwoofers, FOH consoles, 4K LED screens.
• 🏗️ Heavy machinery - milling heads, planetary gears.
• 🗿 Art & collectibles - large sculptures, mixed-media installations.

🚚 Logistic and economic benefits

• ⚖️ Light-heavy - impressive thickness, marginal impact on weight.
• 📐 Fewer layers = faster packing - one 50 mm plate replaces five 10 mm sheets.
• ✂️ Dust-free processing - knife, thermal tape, CNC plotter.
• 🔄 10 + rotation cycles - maintains full amortization.
• 📉 Less damage → lower claim and return costs.

⚙️ Technical specification

• 📏 Format: 600 mm × 400 mm
• 📐 Thickness: 50 mm
• 🪶 Density: 23 kg/m³ (≈ 23 g/m²)
• 🔬 Material: foamed LDPE (closed-cell)
• 🎨 Color: black, matte
• 🚫 Odorless / non-toxic

♻️ Recycling and reuse

The PE 50 mm sheets are intended for multiple rotations. After use, they are ground and returned in the form of LDPE regranulate - 100% circular economy.

📦 Custom boxes and packaging personalization

Combine 50 mm PE foam with perfectly matched cardboard - you will create a mobile safe for the shipment:

• Custom-sized boxes - a tailor-made project (to the millimeter).
• Printed boxes - logo, graphics, QR code.

Also available are sheets of 10 / 20 / 30 / 40 mm; we will help you choose the most effective variant.

🎛️ PE foam sheet creator to measure - adjust the protection in 60 seconds
