0.5mm 1mm 1.5mm 2mm 3mm IXPE Polyethylene Foam WPC SPC Flooring
Underlay Sheet
IXPE polyethylene foam underlay sheets, available in thicknesses
from 0.5mm to 3mm, are essential for WPC and SPC flooring. The
0.5mm variant offers a sleek, low - profile solution, ideal for
spaces where minimizing added height is crucial. It provides basic
sound dampening and a thin moisture barrier.
The 1mm and 1.5mm options strike a balance between cushioning and
space efficiency. They enhance footfall comfort, reduce noise
transmission, and effectively block moisture, protecting floors
from damage. For maximum comfort and protection, the 2mm and 3mm
sheets shine. They offer superior shock absorption, making them
perfect for high - traffic areas. These thicker variants also
significantly reduce noise, creating a quieter indoor environment.
All thicknesses share IXPE’s closed - cell structure, ensuring
durability, waterproofing, and long - term performance for WPC and
SPC flooring.

2)Mass production delivery date will be around 15-45 days,Depends
on the quantity.
Q3:Is polyethylene foam toxic?
Polyethylene is Safe and Non-Toxic
Blocking chemical off-gassing is not so simple.Low density,
food-grade polyethylene is safe and non-toxic. It has a simple
molecular structure that does not require toxic chemical additives
like phthalates and other unsafe plasticizers.
