EPS in Food & Beverage Service: Proven Protection and Convenience

Expanded polystyrene (EPS) has long been trusted in foodservice for its thermal performance, impact resistance, and lightweight strength. From foam cups and trays to clamshells and disposable containers, EPS maintains temperature, prevents leaks, and ensures food arrives safely.

Epsilyte advances this reliability with next-generation EPS grades, including EVRgreen® biodegradable* EPS and cup bead technology, enabling businesses to meet environmental goals while maintaining dependable performance in both hot and cold applications.

EPS Solutions for Smarter Food & Beverage Packaging

Epsilyte EPS supports modern construction with thermal efficiency, lightweight stability, and versatile performance.

Thermal Insulation

EPS maintains hot or cold temperatures, keeping beverages and meals at safe, enjoyable serving conditions. Foam cups, trays, and clamshells benefit from EPS’s low thermal conductivity, ensuring food safety during transport and delivery.

Durability and Spill Protection

EPS is impact-resistant, lightweight, and leak-resistant, preventing damage and spillage during handling. Its compressive strength ensures stability in stacks of cups, trays, or containers, making it ideal for restaurants, catering, and retail food distribution.
