PS/XPS - Polystyrene

Polystyrene (PS) and extruded polystyrene (XPS) are lightweight materials valued for their cushioning properties, thermal insulation and cost efficiency. In food packaging, they offer good rigidity and protection for fresh products requiring secure handling and short‑to‑medium shelf life.

PS and XPS for selective market segments

At Faerch, PS and XPS are offered selectively in market segments where their functional benefits are still relevant and requested by customers. These solutions are typically supplied as rigid trays or pots designed for strength, consistency and efficient processing on existing packing lines.
