Supercritical Foaming
Technology

A physical foaming process that creates lightweight foam materials with fine and uniform cell structures for advanced footwear applications.

Technology Overview

Cleaner, lighter, and more resilient material technology

SCF technology uses supercritical fluid to create foam materials through a controlled physical process. Compared with traditional chemical foaming, it supports lower material density, higher resilience, cleaner processing, and refined appearance.

Lightweight Structure

Lower density for lighter footwear components.

High Resilience

Improved rebound and cushioning performance.

Clean Processing

Physical foaming process with reduced chemical impact.

Refined Appearance

Fine and uniform cell structure supports better surface quality.

Sustainable Development

Supports recyclable and lower-impact material directions.

Process Flow

SCF Production Process

From raw material compounding to final molding, SCF technology enables lightweight and resilient footwear components through a controlled physical foaming process.

Raw Material Compounding

Material formulation & mixing based on performance requirements.

Granulation

Compounded materials are processed into stable pellets for production.

Injection Molding

Pellets are molded into unfoamed preforms with controlled shape and size.

Supercritical Foaming

Preforms are foamed through controlled temperature, pressure, and supercritical fluid.

Final Molding

Foamed parts are shaped and stabilized for final product requirements.

Finished Products

Lightweight and resilient footwear components ready for application.

Why SCF Technology Matters

Fine Cell Structure

Smaller and more uniform cells support strength, stability, and appearance.

Material Performance

SCF materials help improve density, elongation, tensile strength, compression set, and rebound resilience.

Application Flexibility

Supports different colors, structures, and footwear components.
