EPS-Raw-Material
EPS is packed in an outer polypropylene woven bag or kraft-plastics laminated bag with an inner modified PE/PA film bag.
Package weight: 25kg / 500kg / 650kg / 750kg / 800kg / 850kg / 975kg / 1000kg / 1200kg
About Transportation
Transport vehicles should not carry other materials to prevent the beads from contamination. Combustible materials and volatile
organic solvents must never be carried in the same vehicle for safety and avoiding damage. The beads should be packed to
EPS
avoid sun-scorched and rain-drenched, especially in summer.
About Storage
EPS contains volatile and combustible composition and should therefore be kept far away from any source of ignition, preferably
in a cool, dry and well-ventilated storeroom below 25℃ out of direct sunlight. The effective shelf life is 3 months at the

temperature below 25℃, however the ideal material should be used within 1 month from manufacturing. Once the package is
unfolded, the blowing agent will be volatilized rapidly. EPS should be therefore used immediately after the bags opened to avoid
the reduction of expansion ratio or losing effectiveness.
Reasonable weight loss: EPS contains high-volatility blowing agent (C5). It is therefore normal to lose weight in the first half
month after the product leaving the factory.
