Plastazote LD45FR

Plastazote LD45FR is a medium-density cross-linked polyethylene foam formulated with fire retardant additives to help improve fire performance while maintaining reliable mechanical performance. Its closed cell structure provides dependable cushioning and durability while maintaining low water absorption and consistent performance.

It is widely used where a fire retardant foam sheet for protection must deliver both strength and reliable performance. Specific fire performance standards vary by grade, so the relevant product specification should always be checked against the requirements of your application.

Plastazote LD45FR foam sheets are valued for their durability and reliable fire performance.

• Fire retardant closed cell polyethylene foam structure
• Increased strength and durability compared to lower-density fire retardant grades
• Designed to meet specific fire performance requirements, depending on grade
• Excellent impact resistance and cushioning performance
• Low water absorption and moisture resistance
• Maintains mechanical performance for repeated handling
• Easy to cut, shape and fabricate
• Supplied in consistent sheet sizes suitable for repeat orders

These characteristics make Plastazote LD45FR a dependable foam material for applications where both durability and fire performance are essential.

Plastazote LD45FR is widely used in environments where materials must provide reliable protection while meeting fire performance requirements.

Common uses include:

• Transport and vehicle interiors
• Protective equipment and safety padding
• Electrical and mechanical equipment protection
• Battery insulation
• Building and construction applications

It is particularly well suited to applications where materials must maintain performance and durability over time while supporting fire performance requirements.

Use Plastazote LD45FR foam if you need:

• A durable fire retardant foam sheet for protection
• Improved strength compared to lightweight fire retardant grades
• Reliable cushioning in safety-sensitive environments
• A material suitable for repeated handling and long-term use
• Consistent foam sheets suitable for repeat orders

It is not recommended if:

• Fire resistance is not required
• Lightweight flexibility is the primary priority
• A specialist static control or conductive foam is required

Selecting the correct density helps ensure the foam delivers reliable protection while supporting the relevant safety and fire performance requirements.
