STPE200 polyethylene packaging foam

What Are Ethafoam Sheets?

Quick answer

Ethafoam STPE200 is a semi-rigid, non-cross-linked, closed-cell expanded polyethylene foam used for protective packaging, cushioning, gap filling and impact absorption. The grade supplied by All Foam has a nominal density of 24 kg/m³.

Compared with flexible polyurethane packaging foam, Ethafoam provides a firmer, more structured cushioning material. All Foam lists STPE200 within the semi-rigid packaging range, while AFP30 and AFP45 are offered separately as denser cross-linked polyethylene products within the Closed Cell Foam Sheets range.

Ethafoam, Stratocell or Jiffy foam? These names appear in searches for semi-rigid polyethylene packaging materials, but a trade name alone does not prove that two products share the same specification. All Foam supplies STPE200, so compare the actual grade, density, dimensions and intended application. Read our Ethafoam, Stratocell and Jiffy foam guide for more detail.
Performance and material properties

Why Choose Ethafoam STPE200 for Protective Packaging?

STPE200 combines a lightweight 24 kg/m³ nominal density with a semi-rigid closed-cell structure. Its measured properties make it a practical choice for protective packaging, separation and suitable industrial cushioning applications.

Cushioning and impact absorption

STPE200 is manufactured for cushioning, gap filling and impact absorption in suitable packaging and industrial applications.

Low water absorption

Water absorption is specified at 1.19% by volume after 24 hours under DIN 53428.

Thermal stability

Thermal stability is measured at less than 0.5% change after 24 hours at 70°C under ASTM D-3575-S.

Working temperature range

The stated working temperature range is -30°C to +80°C. Suitability still depends on the complete packaging or industrial assembly.

Protective packaging and industrial uses

What Are Ethafoam Sheets Used For?

Ethafoam STPE200 is primarily a protective packaging material, with additional uses where a semi-rigid polyethylene foam layer is required for separation, cushioning or impact protection.

Protective packaging for transit

Cushioning and protective packaging for medium and heavy items in transit.

Gap filling and protective barriers

Gap filling between structural members and protective barriers where a semi-rigid polyethylene foam layer is appropriate.

Column, post and rack protection

Shock-absorbing layers within column, post and rack protection systems.

Thermal and vibration insulation

Thermal and vibration insulation in suitable industrial assemblies.

Packaging electronics? Standard STPE200 provides physical cushioning but should not be treated as an electrostatic discharge material. All Foam does not currently supply a dedicated anti-static foam sheet. Where ESD performance is specified, source the exact anti-static, dissipative or conductive material required for the product.
Bespoke supply

Ethafoam Cut to Size and Custom Converting

All Foam can supply full STPE200 sheets or cut the material to your finished dimensions. Cut-to-size service is included at no extra cost, with custom converting and lamination also available on request.

Send the finished dimensions

Provide the required length, width and thickness so the finished requirement can be checked against the available STPE200 material.

Include quantity and tolerances

For repeat or converted work, include the quantity and any tolerance that matters to the finished part.

Explain the intended application

Tell us how the foam will be used so any relevant material or technical requirement can be identified before production.

Need Ethafoam Cut to Size?

Send All Foam the finished dimensions, thickness, quantity, tolerances and intended application for a bespoke STPE200 requirement.

Compare before ordering

Ethafoam vs Other All Foam Packaging Grades

Start with the required material behaviour and application. Do not choose a foam only because the colour, thickness or product name looks familiar.

Foam type Structure and feel Typical starting point Key check
Ethafoam STPE200 Semi-rigid, non-cross-linked, closed-cell expanded polyethylene Protective packaging, gap filling, protective barriers and suitable industrial protection layers Not fire retardant. Check the technical data against the intended application
Flat Packaging Foam Flexible polyurethane cushioning foam Boxes, case bases, protective layers and general flexible cushioning Not fire retardant and not intended for upholstery
Closed Cell AFP30 / AFP45 Denser cross-linked polyethylene sheets with a more rigid structure Reusable liners, inserts, seals and firmer protective applications Compare AFP30 and AFP45 by density, rigidity and the required load support

Ethafoam has a separate product role. STPE200 has a closed-cell polyethylene structure, but All Foam lists it separately from AFP30 and AFP45 because STPE200 is a semi-rigid non-cross-linked packaging grade and AFP30 and AFP45 are denser cross-linked polyethylene sheets.

Ask the All Foam Team
What are Ethafoam sheets?

All Foam supplies Ethafoam sheets in the STPE200 grade, a semi-rigid, non-cross-linked, closed-cell expanded polyethylene foam manufactured for cushioning, gap filling and impact absorption.

What Ethafoam sheet sizes, thicknesses and colours are available?

All Foam sells STPE200 in 100cm × 120cm and 200cm × 120cm sheets. Available thicknesses are 5mm, 10mm, 15mm, 20mm, 25mm, 30mm, 40mm, 50mm and 100mm, with white or grey colour options.

Can Ethafoam sheets be cut to size?

Yes. All Foam offers STPE200 cut to size at no extra charge. Send the required length, width, thickness, quantity and any important tolerances. Custom converting and lamination are also available on request.

What is Ethafoam STPE200 used for?

STPE200 is used for cushioning and protective packaging for medium and heavy items in transit, gap filling between structural members and protective barriers, shock-absorbing layers within column, post and rack protection systems, and thermal or vibration insulation in suitable industrial assemblies.

What density is Ethafoam STPE200?

The nominal density of STPE200 is 24 kg/m³ under DIN 53420.

Does Ethafoam STPE200 absorb water?

STPE200 has low water absorption, measured at 1.19% by volume after 24 hours under DIN 53428. This does not mean every finished pack or assembly should be treated as waterproof, so suitability still depends on the complete design and environment.

Is Ethafoam STPE200 fire retardant?

No. STPE200 is not fire retardant. Contact All Foam if your application requires a foam with a specified fire performance.

Is Ethafoam the same as Stratocell or Jiffy foam?

Ethafoam, Stratocell and Jiffy are names customers may encounter when searching for semi-rigid polyethylene packaging materials. A trade name alone does not prove that two products have the same grade or performance, so compare the actual specification. All Foam supplies STPE200.

What is the difference between Ethafoam STPE200 and AFP30 or AFP45?

STPE200 is a semi-rigid, non-cross-linked expanded polyethylene packaging foam. AFP30 and AFP45 are denser cross-linked polyethylene sheets in the All Foam Closed Cell Foam Sheets range. Choose by the required material structure, density, rigidity and application rather than by colour or thickness alone.

Can I buy Ethafoam sheets online from All Foam?

Yes. Choose the sheet size, thickness, colour and quantity on this page to see the live price and add the selected STPE200 sheet to the basket. UK mainland delivery is free, with delivery surcharges applying to specified remote areas.
