Zotefoams plc. has released its new product PackaZote – a new foam grade which is reportedly competitively priced.
The company claims its new grade’s properties will make it an economical choice for the packaging market.
Paul van Rheenen, Sales & Marketing Director said: “We are excited to reveal our new packaging grade PackaZote. This is a new direction for us as a company, but we are aware that for us to maintain our reputation as world leaders in cross-linked block foam, we need to listen to the market.”
Zotefoams’ venture into the economic packaging foam market has lead to great interest and an apparently very competitive foam product, with benefits believed to outshine the competition.
PackaZote was developed to fill a gap in the market with a product that can fulfil its application need while offering the converter properties including isotropic behaviour, purity, lighter density and less lamination.
The product is available as a 200mm x 1200mm x 53mm slab, which in application terms means less wastage and better application methods.
Zotefoams makes its products using a high-pressure nitrogen gas solution process, which is said to produce pure, chemically inert foam without blowing agent residues and with a uniform cell structure and regular cell walls.
