About Foam Products

POLYURETHANE FOAM
Application: Upholstery, bedding, seat cushions, motor trimming.
Stocked in a wide range of grades from light grades for short term use, through a range of different hardnesses, to the premium (long lasting) and specialty foams such as combustion modified. Supplied cut or in sheets. Ask for advice about the foam to suit your application and your budget.

Foam products in polyurethane foam are stocked as mattresses (to commercial quality) shaped (e.g. backrests, wedges, bolsters etc.), and in convoluted surface finishes (e.g. mattress overlays, invalid comfort cushion etc.).

POLYESTER FOAM
Application: Polyester foams are specialty foams for acoustic and filtering purposes. Properties can include flame retardancy, fuel and oil tolerance, and differing grades of coarseness. Polyester foams have a shorter life than the polyurethane foams which have replaced them for general use. Meracell foam is for filtering air, water, or fuel. Reticulated foam is for fish tank system filters. Acoustic foam is available in flat or convoluted surface finish.

CLOSED CELL FOAMS
Application: Closed cell foams are used in many applications. Closed cell foam characteristics include buoyancy; shock absorbent; not absorbing water; resistant to petrol, oils and most chemicals; insulation against heat and cold, and UV resistance.
EVA, polyethylene and various blends and laminates of closed cell foam are stocked in sheet, on the roll, and in product form (e.g. boat fenders, foil faced insulation, expansion joint filler, sealing strips, grip matting).

POLYSTYRENE FOAM
Application: Packing material which also has insulating properties. It lacks the flexibility of closed cell foam in that it is ‘crisp', but is a cost effective alternative in static applications. Stocked in sheet thicknesses of 10mm to 100mm. Other supplied to order.
