Heavy-Duty Foam Planks That Stop Damage and Cut Waste
For operations that need damage prevention, reusability, and a custom fit in one solution, BGR’s heavy-duty polyethylene foam planks deliver.
BGR’s Heavy-Duty Foam Planks are lightweight, high-density sheets that cushion heavy or fragile items in transit, hold up under pressure, and slash long-term packaging waste — all without crumbling, collapsing, or needing constant replacement.
Why It Matters
If you’re shipping industrial equipment, electronics, or fragile goods — standard foam won’t cut it. That’s because up to 80% of product damage happens inside the box, not outside it (source: ISTA).
That’s where heavy-duty polyethylene foam planks come in:
-
Stops costly damage: These planks support high loads and absorb repeated shock.
-
Survives harsh shipping environments: Closed-cell design resists water, oil, and chemicals.
-
Reduces waste: Built for reuse — unlike foam that crumbles or collapses after just one use.
Foam planking is the smart choice for teams seeking damage-free deliveries and reusable packaging that holds up under pressure.
Benefits of Foam Planks
1. Cushion Impact for Heavy or Sensitive Items
-
Absorbs shock and provides vibration-dampening to reduce g-force transmission.
-
Versatile enough for bulky parts, precision instruments, and fragile electronics gear alike.
2. Built to Last, Shipment After Shipment
-
Closed-cell foam resists mold, water, and chemical exposure.
-
Cuts replacement costs and packaging waste over time.
3. Custom Fit for any part or package
-
Cuts easily into custom forms.
-
Perfect for blocking and bracing in transit — from foam-lined racks to crate inserts.
-
Speeds up packing and protects better than loose fill.
How It Works
Closed-cell polyethylene foam packs millions of sealed air pockets into a dense, flexible sheet:
-
Compresses and recovers under repeated shock.
-
Blocks water, oil, and contaminants from seeping in.
-
Delivers both structure and softness — it holds weight and cushions at the same time.
This gives you a repeatable, high-performance material you can rely on for damage prevention and reuse.
By the Numbers:
-
Supports 860 lbs/ft² without crushing — strong enough to cradle heavy equipment or instruments.
-
Retains 95%+ of thickness after a week under load — helps you get repeated reuse.
-
0% liquid absorption — foam stays dry and effective in wet or dirty conditions.
-
Up to 70% packaging cost savings — especially in returnable packaging systems.
