Microfoam® low-density, lightweight polypropylene

Microfoam® low-density, lightweight polypropylene:

The Situation

A provider of playground equipment has a hard time finding the whole package when seeking a protective packaging solution: performance, pricing and environmental stewardship.

  • In 2005 company switched from using Microfoam® for cost reasons.
  • The company received higher number of complaints about damage after the switch.
  • The company was not willing to switch back until a “total solution” was brought before them.

The Solution

Microfoam® was able to address all three items the company was seeking.

  • Microfoam® had superior performance properties.
  • Through manufacturing improvements a significant amount of the cost differential could be removed.
  • A system was devised where purchasers could send the material to a plant for recycling or regrinding. Thus incorporating all the company’s needs.
