Recycled material content in RoFoam

Written by Schmitz Foam Supply | Apr 8, 2025 1:30:31 PM

Sustainability is at the core of Schmitz Foam Supply's mission. Our foam products contain up to 40% recycled material, with regrind and cutting waste seamlessly reintegrated into the production process.

By prioritizing recycled content over new petroleum-based plastics, we reduce raw material extraction, minimize landfill waste, and help lower pollution.  

Beyond using recycled materials, we offer an innovative end-of-life solution for XPE foam. Instead of sending foam remnants to landfills or incineration, we collect and transform them into high quality new foam products. ProPlay shock pads play a vital role in creating sustainable, safe and healthy sports and play environments worldwide. At the end of their lifespan, they can be fully recycled into new ProPlay shock pads, perfectly embodying our commitment to the circular economy, a key priority for our company.

At Schmitz Foam Supply, our commitment to sustainability and a circular economy is embedded in every stage of our manufacturing process. From responsibly sourcing materials to minimizing waste and reducing environmental impact. Choosing our foam products means making the most environmentally responsible choice while significantly lowering your product’s footprint.
