PE foam protective profile "L" 75-75 1m

PE foam "L 75-75" protective profile 1 m - Heavy-duty corner shield for stone countertops, Jumbo windows and large appliances

"L 75-75" is a reinforced foam profile in the shape of the letter L designed to protect massive corners and wide edges during transport and storage. Two 75 mm arms securely cover the corners of 60-70 mm stone blocks, facade windows, steel doors, side-by-side fridge housings and control cabinets. Despite its large format, a one-meter section weighs only ≈ 26 g, so it does not burden freight costs. Closed-cell PE foam creates a dense matrix of micro air cushions that absorb shocks and prevent chipping. The characteristic blue color makes it easy to quickly check whether every corner has been secured.

What is a PE foam protective profile?

The "L 75-75" profile is created in the continuous extrusion process of foamed polyethylene LDPE/EPE. It covers the corner of the element with 75 mm arms, performing three key functions:

1. Shock absorption: millions of closed cells dissipate the energy of impacts, protecting against chipping and dents.
2. Separation: the elastic foam maintains a safe distance between surfaces - eliminating friction and scratches during vibration.
3. Quick installation: the profile easily slides onto the corner; for vertical or long-distance transport, it is recommended to additionally immobilize (stretch, tape, strap).

Material – foamed polyethylene LDPE/EPE

• Density 30 kg/m³: high elasticity (resistance to crushing up to 60%) - no crumbling at -40 °C.
• Hydrophobic: the closed-cell structure does not absorb water, does not mold or increase in mass.
• Chemical inertness: LDPE foam does not react with paints, oils or metals; it does not discolor surfaces.
• Ecology: physically foamed (N₂ / CO₂), without CFC and HCFC freons; 100% recyclable in the LDPE #4 stream.

🛡️ Profile properties - shock absorption & easy installation

• ⚡ Quick installation: profile attachment to the corner takes < 1 s.
• 🌡️ Range -40 °C ... +90 °C: foam does not crumble in frost nor soften in heat.
• 🔄 > 10 cycles of reuse: withstands multiple uses - test compression of 50% without permanent deformation.
• ✂️ Custom cutting: easy cutting with a knife or guillotine allows for any length.
• ⚠️ Transport stability: for long-term or transoceanic transport, additional securing with stretch or tape is recommended.

🚚 Applications in packaging and logistics

• Stone blocks < 75 mm: protection of corners of granite countertops, stair treads, Jumbo sinter plates.
• Façade glass: cushioning of glass panel edges in vertical transport.
• Premium furniture: corner protection of thick table tops and kitchen islands.
• Large appliances: protection of corners of side-by-side refrigerators, chest freezers, industrial ovens.
• Control cabinets and metal cabinets: edge protection during crane loading.

💰 Logistic and economic benefits

• Price < 1.80 PLN/pc. (when buying a pallet) – the cost of the profile pays off after avoiding one complaint about a stone slab.
• ⚖️ Marginal weight: ≈ 0.04% of the weight of 65 kg countertops or device.
• ⏱️ Shortened packing time by -30% vs manual wrapping with foil and cardboard.
• 🔄 > 10 reuse cycles – resistance to wear in the return cycle.
• 📉 Transport complaints -30% (user data, 2024).

♻️ Ecology and recycling of PE profiles

The "L 75-75" profiles are made of LDPE/EPE (recycling code #4), so after use they can be given to the standard LDPE film stream.

• Freon-free: physical foaming (nitrogen/CO₂), no CFC and HCFC.
• Long life cycle: > 10 uses, primary waste reduction.
• Energy-efficient recycling: LDPE melts at 120–140 °C.
• Return logistics: light profiles easy to bale - 1 pallet ≈ 10 000 mb.
• Up-cycling: regranulate goes into construction films, drainage pipes, new packaging.

Effect: 1 kg of recovered LDPE saves ~1.8 kg of CO₂-eq compared to primary production (Plastics Europe, 2024).
