The product name AIREX® is composed of AIR and EX for expansion. Air bubbles, which are characteristic for this material, form during the manufacturing process and increase the volume many times over - while the weight remains constant.
Specifically, our AIREX® foam products are composed of 50-96% air. This minimizes the consumption of raw materials as well as weight and costs.
AIREX® rigid foams persuade with their very high mechanical properties and minimal weight. When used as a core material between two thin, stiff face sheets they create sandwich structures that can be more than 50% lighter than conventional structures.
