What is Expandable Polystyrene (EPS)?
Expandable Polystyrene (EPS) is supplied as small spherical EPS beads, which contain an expansion agent already within them. The expansion of the beads is accomplished by exposing them to steam, resulting in a lightweight, cellular structure that is both strong and versatile. EPS possesses a low thermal conductivity and is therefore highly appropriate for use as an insulator. It boasts a high compressive strength-to-weight ratio, moisture resistance, and excellent versatility in EPS molding. In addition, EPS is 100% recyclable, which supports green manufacturing. Our high-quality EPS raw materials ensure the best performance in all applications, from construction to packaging.
Understanding Our EPS Grades Overview
EPS Grades differ primarily based on bead size, potential density, and special additives.
Bead Size & Density
EPS beads come in fine, medium, and coarse grades. Fine beads produce high-density parts with smooth surface finishes that are best suited for precision EPS molding, whereas coarse beads are best suited for block molding applications. The density has a direct impact on the strength and EPS for insulation of the product.
Special Additives
Some EPS Grades include special additives such as flame retardants (FR) to ensure construction safety requirements. Others are food-grade compatible to ensure safe EPS for packaging use, to ensure material performance, and safety.
Having these parameters will allow you to select the most appropriate EPS Grades for your own production needs.

Applications of EPS Grades by Industry
Construction and Insulation
EPS as an insulating material is a critical feature of emerging building technologies. EPS is used extensively in roof insulation boards and wall insulation boards, offering better thermal resistance and energy efficiency. EPS geofoam is another critical application, used in civil engineering to relieve soil loads and provide lightweight fill alternatives. EPS is also used in insulated concrete forms (ICFs), combining structural stability with improved EPS for insulation performance. For such applications, proper selection of the EPS grade will ensure performance and durability. Shobeir Shimi offers high-grade EPS exclusively tailored for insulation and geofoam uses in accordance with building industry standards.
Packaging Solutions
EPS packaging is the ideal material to utilize in protecting delicate and costly commodities such as electronics, white goods, and other delicate commodities when shipping. Its shock-absorbing, heavy-duty, yet light properties make it possible to create personalized-molded shapes and corner protectors that are damage-proof. Ranging from standard packaging to specialized, customized protective inserts, EPS for packaging provides safe cushioning and protection. Shobeir Shimi supplies different grades of EPS for different packaging applications to ensure protection of the product within global supply chains.
Food & Agriculture
In the food and agriculture business, EPS packaging is important for maintaining product safety and freshness. It is used extensively in manufacturing insulated boxes to transport fresh vegetables and fruits, as well as seafood items, that keep temperature-sensitive food items fresh during transportation. EPS finds usage in seed trays and cold beverage cups, offering sanitary and lightweight options. Food-grade EPS by Shobeir Shimi is safe and can be utilized for direct contact with food products.
Automotive & Industrial
EPS molding is a significant material in industrial and automotive applications where impact resistance and weight saving are crucial. It may be utilized in producing such products as protective dunnage that shields pieces during shipping, and impact-composing parts such as helmet liners. The strength and adaptability of EPS are factors that make it suitable for usage by manufacturers in search of efficient uses of EPS to boost protection and reduce weight. Shobeir Shimi provides different grades for EPS applications that are used to meet the high demands of the automotive and industrial sectors.
