At FAP, we understand that the extrusion of gas-filled polymers is a critical process requiring precision and the right equipment. However, the lamination of physically foamed materials is equally important. This process involves bonding foamed polymers either to themselves (to increase thickness) or to other materials like reflective foil, PET, and HDPE, enhancing the final […]
The Value That Powers Every FAP Machine At FAP, when you walk through our doors, you don’t just find machines - you find people working together. Engineers and technicians, sales teams, suppliers, and clients, partners. Because collaboration isn’t just a phase in our workflow - it is our workflow. In a world of manufacturing, true […]
Why is it so important to choose the correct GMS dosing during the foaming/expansion process to produce high quality PE (polyethylene) or PP (polypropylene) foam material? Simply because GMS, being an emulsifier and one of the most significant components, has a huge influence on many factors. Let’s examine the following three main factors that help […]
May has already arrived, which means we are here to tell you about our fifth core value: Reliability. You can’t fake reliability. It’s not about promises - it’s about showing up, doing the work, and doing it well, over and over again. Reliability is a commitment we prove daily. It’s in every project delivered on time, […]
Let's figure it out together. How to Produce Low-Density Physically Foamed Polyethylene Foam (EPE): Myths, Limits, and Real Solutions Reduce Raw Material Costs Without Compromising Foam Quality In today’s highly competitive foam polymer market, manufacturers are constantly looking for ways to reduce production costs. One of the most common strategies is to reduce the density of […]
April has already arrived, which means we are here to tell you about our fourth core value: Efficiency - is not just a matter of speed - it is a conscious choice, a way of thinking and acting that defines HOW WE WORK at FAP. In the world of industrial machinery, where every second counts, […]

The industry leaders will reveal how FAP the latest CO2 foaming equipment, Borealis HMS PP Daploy™ 140HMS, and Royce Global functional additive masterbatches […]
Competitive advantages of FAP foam twin-screw extrusion technology It is no secret that each technology has its own advantages and disadvantages. When deciding to invest in the production of polyethylene (EPE), polypropylene (EPP) foam and polystyrene (EPS) it is important to understand: What materials do you want to produce on foam extrusion line? The "predictability" […]
