Expanded polypropylene (EPP) is a closed cell bead foam. These foam are shaped in steam chest. EPP has various useful properties such as excellent energy absorption, excellent structural strength, thermal insulation, sound deadening and lightweight, and others. Expandable polypropylene is being processed in multi stage proprietary process for shaping of EPP foam beads. EPP is used in automotive for bumper cores, head rest, boot infill and tool pods, etc. EPP is applied in HVAC industry for housing heat exchangers, air filtration systems and boilers, and others. Different Type of expandable polypropylene such as Low density EPP, high density EPP and porous PP are used in different applications.
