Foam tray is a kind of pallet made of foam material as the main raw material to carry and protect items. Foam is a lightweight, soft and has excellent cushioning properties of the material, usually by polyethylene (PE) or polypropylene (PP) and other polymer materials foamed. Foam trays are widely used in logistics, warehousing, transportation and industrial production and other fields, mainly used to protect fragile products, precision instruments, electronic products and other shock and vibration sensitive items. Foam tray have the following features:
- Lightweight: Foam material has low density and light weight, which is easy to handle and operate. Compared with traditional wooden pallets or metal pallets, foam trays can significantly reduce transportation costs, while reducing the labor intensity of operators.
- Excellent cushioning properties: foam material has good elasticity and energy-absorbing properties, can effectively absorb the external impact, to protect the items on the pallet from vibration, collision and other damage. This feature makes it especially suitable for the transportation of fragile products or precision equipment.
- Moisture-proof, anti-corrosion: foam material itself has waterproof, moisture-proof properties, not easily affected by moisture. In addition, it will not be as easy as wooden pallets to rot or insects, and there is no metal pallets of rust and corrosion problems, so it is particularly prominent in the humid environment.
- Environmental protection: many foam materials can be recycled, in line with the requirements of green environmental protection. At the same time, the production process of foam trays has low energy consumption, reducing the impact on the environment.
- Customizable: foam trays can be customized according to different product shapes, sizes and transportation needs. For example, pallets with grooves or fixtures can be designed for precision instruments to ensure that items remain stable during transportation.
- Quiet operation: foam trays do not produce noise during use, suitable for places that require a quiet environment, such as laboratories, hospitals and so on.
- Multifunctionality: some foam trays after special treatment, but also can have anti-static, fire, high temperature and other functions, further expanding its scope of application.
