Foam Insert

Foam Insert is a cushioning material commonly used in foreign trade packaging. It refers to foam blocks customized or cut to product shape, placed inside packaging boxes to secure products and absorb shock and vibration. Typically made of polyurethane (PU), polyethylene (PE), or expanded polystyrene (EPS), it features light weight, good cushioning, and die-cut capability. Usage scenarios include transport packaging for fragile or high-value goods such as electronics, precision instruments, lighting fixtures, and glass products. Precautions: select density and thickness based on product weight and fragility; pay attention to target market environmental requirements (e.g., EU restrictions on certain blowing agents); if dangerous goods, comply with relevant packaging regulations. Difference from 'Foam Board': inserts are usually three-dimensionally formed for localized cushioning; foam boards are mostly sheets used for overall cushioning or partitioning. Compared with 'Bubble Wrap', foam inserts provide higher support strength, suitable for heavy or irregularly shaped products. Foreign trade contracts should specify material, density, dimensions, and environmental standards.
