Success story with particle foam

EPS – better know by its brand name Styropor® (also known as Styrofoam) – is part of an incomparable success story. Since it was introduced in the 1950s, this hard, white foam has been used as a light, robust packaging material.

In the meantime, our Schlaadt particle foam family has grown to include other members, which augment the capabilities of EPS with their special properties. This opens up many new possible applications.

Here we’d like to introduce you to our dream team of particle foams: from Styropor® to Neopor®, from EPP and EPE on to special foams.
