Our packing peanuts are made from Expanded Polystyrene Foam scraps leftover from other jobs or brought in to our recycle center which gives our Packing Cubes density and strength, unlike the loose fill popcorn which squishes and settles leaving your box half empty when it arrives, especially with heavier products.

Our packing peanuts are not abrasive, white, and not ruined by water.

Our Foam Packing Peanuts are sold in 14 cubic foot bags. We use no labeling on our bags to better allow for recycling.

Since we are reusing scrap foam, sizes and shapes of our packing peanuts is not uniform. Call for more information.

Uses of our Packing a better Cubes:

• PACAGING FILL and CUSHIONING
• SOIL WATER DRAINAGE and SOIL AERATION
• SOIL FILLER and POTTING MIX FILLER
• SEPTIC TANK DRAIN FIELDS
• SWIMMING POOL CONCRETE FILL

What are Foam Packing Peanuts?

Packing peanuts, also known as popcorn, loose fill, packing chips or packing noodles, are a common cushioning material used for filling void areas in packaging to prevent movement and damage to fragile objects during transportation. They are commonly made of expanded polystyrene foam (EPS).

The original patent was filed for by Robert E. Holden in 1962 and was granted in 1965. Polystyrene-based packing peanuts were developed and patented by Tektronix Inc. Packing peanuts were first made commercially available in 1965 by Dow Chemical. Originally made from 100% virgin polystyrene resin, peanuts made from 100% recycled polystyrene have been commercially available since the mid-90s. Pink foam packing peanuts means an anti-static agent has been applied. Polystyrene peanuts may be used and reused many times with little or no loss in protection for the product shipped. They may be reused and recycled at many packing and shipping stores.

Are packing peanuts recyclable?

Many packaged peanuts are recyclable and can be taken to a local drop-off center or brought to our location in Clearwater, Florida . Other solutions include donating foam packaging peanuts - many companies will take the packing material they’ve included with your package back and reuse them for other orders, and some local shipping companies might take them off your hands. Or if you know anyone that’s planning to move, they may appreciate your no-longer needed foam popcorn for using in their boxes.
