Plastazote HD80 is a high-density cross-linked polyethylene foam manufactured to deliver increased stiffness and load-bearing capability. Its closed cell structure provides consistent performance, strong impact resistance and dependable durability.

It is widely used where a strong foam sheet for protection or structural support must maintain stability under heavier loads or repeated use.

Plastazote HD80 foam sheets are valued for their strength, rigidity and dependable long-term performance.

  • High-density closed cell polyethylene foam structure
  • Increased stiffness and structural stability
  • Excellent load-bearing and support performance
  • Strong impact resistance and durability
  • Low water absorption and moisture resistance
  • Resistant to many chemicals and environmental conditions
  • Easy to cut, shape and fabricate
  • Supplied in consistent sheet sizes suitable for repeat orders

These characteristics make Plastazote HD80 a reliable material for applications requiring robust protection and structural reliability.

Plastazote HD80 is widely used in situations where materials must provide strong support and reliable protection under demanding conditions.

Common uses include:

  • Heavy-duty protective packaging
  • Structural padding and cushioning
  • Equipment and machinery protection
  • Storage and transport protection
  • Tool and equipment cases
  • Industrial and commercial protective applications

It is particularly well suited to applications where materials must maintain shape and performance under higher loads and repeated handling.

Use Plastazote HD80 foam if you need:

  • A rigid high-density foam sheet for protection or support
  • Increased stiffness and durability compared to lower-density grades
  • Reliable performance under heavier loads
  • A material that maintains shape over time
  • Consistent foam sheets suitable for repeat orders

It is not recommended if:

  • Lightweight flexibility or soft cushioning is required
  • A very soft protective material is needed
  • A specialist specification such as anti-static or fire-retardant foam is required

Selecting the correct density helps ensure the foam performs reliably in demanding applications.
