Expanded Polypropylene
Nonpolluting and recyclable
EPP does not contain hydrocarbon, volatile organic components or other elements which are classified to be very harmful to the environment. Free of heavy metal, EPP is used e.g. in the automotive industry not only for the improvement of the vehicular reliability but also for the reduction of weight.
Therefore, it contributes to the reduction of exhaust emission and the fuel consumption. EPP can be recycled or burned, whereas the burning induces a high calorific value without corrosive gas emission. If EPP is worked up to a protective wrapping, it is completely reusable. Furthermore, EPP is totally nontoxic so that it can be used unconsidered –even the primary product- for the production of toys.
