Cruz Foam is a high-performance, protective, sustainable, foam product for the shipping of impact-sensitive, cold-chain goods, and more. It is the first fully compostable packaging foam, matching the performance and characteristics of expanded polyethylene (EPE) while ensuring safe delivery of high-value goods and meeting sustainability demands. With 70% upcycled ingredients derived from food waste, Cruz Foam is ASTM D6400 tested compostable, setting a new bar for sustainability.

The material is designed to replace EPE (1.2 – 1.7 lb/ft3) and EPS (<3 lb/ft3). This closed-loop material is sold in sheets, which are then converted into final applications. Cruz Foam offers exceptional cushioning, thermal insulation, and vibration dampening, making it a superior alternative to traditional synthetic foams.
