NOT FOREVER™
A leap forward in sustainable, lightweight, and durable foams
TOALITE™ can be recycled alongside PP (polypropylene) materials in regular household recycling schemes.
With a diverse range of TOALITE™ foam bead densities engineered to meet different performance and cost targets, we offer scalable, high-quality foam bead technologies tailored to your specific needs.
Reliable technical properties for mass production.
Being both recyclable and having the ability to naturally break down back into nature helps lessen ecological damage.
Returns to nature once discarded and ends up in landfill.
TOALITE™ EPP is an expansion of TOAResin™ PP

ABOUT
TOALITE
TOALITE
™
TOACELL™ foams are designed to be more environmentally friendly, offering better recyclability than thermoset foams.
TOACELL™ foams are made by applying heat, pressure, and abundant gases, such as N2 and CO2, to expand, forming a uniform foam structure. Resulting in foams with very fine and uniform cellular structures, enhancing their strength and thermal insulation properties. This makes TOACELL™ foams a greener choice for applications requiring lightweight, durable materials.
In contrast, thermoset foams use harsh chemical compounds as foaming agents, and once set, they cannot be remelted.
What makes TOACELL™ more recyclable than Thermoset foams?
Once foamed, TOACELL™'retains its thermoplastic nature allowing it to be remelted and reshaped multiple times, facilitating recycling and reducing landfill waste.
Common thermoset foams like PU (Polyurethane) foams are permanently set and cannot be remelted or recycled easily, often ending up as environmental pollutants.
SUSTAINABILITY
Our commitment to the environment is not just about reducing waste through biodegradation but also about contributing to a circular economy, where materials can be reused and repurposed, minimising environmental impact.
TOACELL™ highlights the importance of choosing the right materials that support eco-friendly manufacturing and disposal practices.
