Expanded polyethylene (PE / EPE)

Expanded polyethylene is obtained through a chemical or physical expansion process.
It is characterized by its cellular structure, which makes it particularly light. In industrial supply it is often referred to as expanded PE or EPE (expanded polyethylene).
It can be worked “naked” or coupled with fabrics and skins.
