{"product_id":"pe-hardschuim","title":"PE rigid foam","description":"\u003cp\u003ePolyethylene (PE) foam is a material consisting of closed air cells. This ensures that the material offers excellent protection. The foam is about as hard as packaging foam; we also supply a softer variant (soft foam).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApplications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe application area of PE foam is mainly for case inlays and for protecting objects.

The cut looks approximately the same as the material itself, but the cut is slightly angled. The foam is a little stretchy; we try to load the material into the laser as carefully as possible without tension, but it is possible that a component that is \"relaxed\" may deviate slightly from the actual size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eProtective film and double-sided adhesive film are not possible.
