Cross-Linked Polyethylene Foam Supplier
Cross-linked polyethylene, also known as XLPE foam, is a closed-cell foam material that combines an outstanding range of chemical and physical properties. This polyethylene foam is a chemically cross-lined material, resulting in fine cells and a smooth feel. This uniform and compact feel enhance its aesthetic and visual appeal, which makes it commonly used for both protective and decorative packaging. In fact, cross-linked polyethylene foam is used to protect Class A surfaces and highly sensitive medical and military devices and equipment.
Because it combines many desirable chemical and physical characteristics, customized cross-linked polyethylene foam is an extremely popular material in numerous applications, including packaging, insulation, toys, floatation devices, gaskets, seals, expansion joints, cushioning, orthopedic, sporting goods, and much more. Properties such as buoyancy, dimensional stability, flexibility, durability, thermal stability, and high resiliency make it extremely desirable in such industries as medical and health care, packaging, military, industrial, construction, transportation, entertainment, sports, and leisure, and others.
As a top custom cross-linked polyethylene foam packaging supplier and fabrication company in California, Atlas Foam will guide you to the best solution and services for your specific application. Gain access to our 50 years of unparalleled production and fabrication experience by partnering with us.

High-Quality Cross-Linked Polyethylene Foam Products
At Atlas Foam Products, we design and fabricate cross-linked polyethylene foam packaging, products, and components tailored to your custom specifications and exact application requirements. We utilize L200 and L300 cross-linked foam, also known as Youngboard or Minicel® foam. In bun form, this chemically cross-linked material is ideal for applications requiring a thicker foam.
Foam Sizes and Dimensions
We supply L200 and L300 polyethylene foam in sizes ranging from the following:
- Up to 4” thickness
- Up to 48” width
- Up to 96” length
We can accommodate larger and custom sizes by bonding additional or multiple pieces together. Also, we can cut down both foam materials to a quarter-inch thickness.
