E TPU Advanced Material

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 sole is as below:

• Lightweight, we all desire a good quality shoe in a lightweight
• Shock impact absorption, Expanded TPU is a closed cell foam that can absorb shock impact on the foot during jogging or run
• Elastic and rebound effect, the lightweight E-TPU foam beads is very elastic, it can provide people with the desired rebound effect when jumping or running, this improved our running behaviour
• Softness and resilience, the Expanded TPU foam material can provide us softness and highly reactive resilience performance at the same time.
