Are polystyrene sheets recyclable?

Expanded Polystyrene (EP) is 100% recyclable, but it’s not accepted by most kerbside recycling collections. It can be recycled through specialist facilities where available.

Can polystyrene sheets be cut to size?

Yes. EPS sheets can be trimmed cleanly with a knife or hot wire to suit specific boxes, pallets or packaging setups.

What are polystyrene sheets used for?

They are commonly used for separating products on pallets, lining boxes and providing cushioning for fragile or polished goods.

Do polystyrene sheets offer insulation?

Yes. The closed-cell EPS structure provides both impact cushioning and thermal insulation for temperature-sensitive goods.

Polystyrene Sheets

Polystyrene sheets, also known as EPS (expanded polystyrene sheets), provide lightweight and effective protection for products in storage and transit. Available in a choice of thicknesses and sizes, they are commonly used as protective layers inside cartons, as pallet dividers, or as inserts to reduce movement and surface contact.

The closed-cell EPS structure gives reliable shock absorption and insulation without adding unnecessary weight. Sheets are supplied clean, non-abrasive, and easy to cut to size, making them a practical option for packaging applications where cushioning and separation are required.
