The Expanded Thermoplastic Polyurethane, in short E-TPU, is manufactured by foaming TPU granules,which is similar to EPP foaming process that the TPU granules are also pretreated with high pressure and heat. With specialized foam mouding machinery and facility,the E-TPU cell foams can be moulded into different shapes.
The most advantage and benefit of the Expanded TPU cell foam in shoe mid-sole is as below:
--lightweight, we are all desire a good quality shoe in lightweight.
--shock impact absorption, Expanded TPU is a closed cell foam that can absorb shock impact on the foot during jogging or running.
--elastic and rebound effect,the lightweight E-TPU foam beads is very elastic, it can provide people the desired rebound effect when jumping or running, this improved our running behavior.
--softness and resilience, the Expanded TPU foam material can provide us softness and highly reactive resilience performance in the same time.
--durability, shoes made from the Expanded TPU foam sole has been recognized among shoe users, it is more durable than other sole materials.
Our PMPF foam moulding factory had openned a mould for producing 750*1200*22mm sized ETPU foam sheet products and it can be cutted into thin thickness sheet like 2.5mm, 3mm and 5mm so that can be applied to shoes' mid-sole or insole linning.
If you are interested in using the above proposed Expanded TPU ( E-TPU) for your new sports running shoe mid-sole/insole linning design, our factory is able to provide you the E-TPU sole manufacturing service, and if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
