Foamed plastic structures that include one or more foamed plastic bodies containing a polymer matrix that includes one or more polymers formed by pol ymerizing a monomer mixture formed by polymerizing a monomer mixture contain ing vinyl aromatic monomers using a polymerization initiator having a struct ure corresponding to: R(Y)n where R is a C2 to C32 linear, branched, and/or cyclic aliphatic and/or aromatic group that can also include one or more ato ms selected from oxygen, nitrogen, halides, silicon and sulfur, Y is a group that can generate a free radical capable of initiating polymerization of th e monomers in the monomer mixture; and n is from 2 to 6. The structures form ed can include, as non-limiting examples, pallets, containers, stackable con tainers, produce boxes, seafood shipping containers, geofoam blocks, and ins ulated concrete forms.
