Physical Foam at its best

Since 1998 Proxital has been producing Physical Foam of quality, completely regenerable and recyclable indefinitely.
But this does not mean having a standard product, on the contrary, Proxital research has made important steps forward, bringing innovation to the sector, with state-of-the-art patented formulas and technologies.

To meet the demands of the various production and industrial sectors and the suggestions of transformers, over the years we have developed a complete and transversal range. Here are our four spearheads of the ReFoam range in Polypropylene (PP) and Polyethylene (PE):

PROXIL® is the ecological and thermoformable Polypropylene (PP): MORE »

XTRACELL is the revolutionary packaging material that doesn’t fear blows: MORE »

TERILEX is the high-performance soundproofing material for construction: MORE »

ZEROVIRGOLACINQUE è la rivoluzione sostenibile, prestazioni incredibili in soli 0,5 mm: MORE »

From Refuse to Resource

L’economia circolare è un principio che evidenzia il fatto che le cose si influenzano reciprocamente.

La necessità quindi di creare un equilibrio, una sostenibilità, è maggiormente evidente quando si pone attenzione alla capacità dell’uomo di creare rifiuti. Con la costante crescita della popolazione mondiale, è indispensabile trasformare i rifiuti in risorse, così che si possano inserire nuovamente in un ciclo che ne permetta la trasformazione, portandoli a nuova vita ed utilizzo.

Proxital ha da sempre considerato la sostenibilità come uno dei suoi pilastri fondanti e agisce concretamente per realizzarla. Uno dei suoi fiori all’occhiello è l’impianto di riciclo completo per il riutilizzo degli sfridi di lavorazione di Polietilene e Polipropilene espanso, sia della produzione interna che dei nostri Clienti, che danno vita a nuovi prodotti 100% riciclabili e rigenerabili.

University Research

In its research and development processes, Proxital has always relied on technical experts and research institutes, for the creation of real product and process innovation.

Proxital has entered into a research contract with the industrial engineering department of Padua University to certify the recyclability of non-crosslinked polyethylene foam in post-consumer processes.

The raw materials used for the various tests are regenerated LDPE polyethylene, the regenerated LDPE + HDPE mix and the polyolefin mix.These materials were scientifically characterised via spectrophotometry, thermogravimetry analysis, calorimetric and mechanical analysis and with the melt flow index.

Mixes were then produced with different percentage blends of the various materials, then the extrusion and resistance tests were carried out. Proxital treasures this type of research, in order to launch ever new, better-performing products, which are perfectly sustainable and 100% recyclable and regenerable.
