Not all foams are made the same
Foam comprises over 75% of our product, serving as its core component. While various types of foam with unique properties are available, and substitutes are sometimes used to replicate superior features, our experience has shown that a strong foundation is crucial. Thus, we source and collaborate with the world’s leading foam producers to ensure the highest quality.
Partnering with suppliers of innovative products and processes enables us to advance through new chemistry and processes. It also ensures consistent quality and timely delivery.
By integrating materials like metals, ceramics, and composites, manufacturers can reduce the dependence on traditional petroleum-based materials.
Using advanced materials in product design and manufacturing offers several key benefits that improve performance and reduce the reliance on traditional polymers reducing the environmental impact.
Key characteristics of foam for foam coated abrasive use:
| Characteristic | Benefit |
| Compression | Returns to original shape after compression |
| Weight | Easy to handle without adding weight. Lower cost of transportation |
| Tensile strength | Polyurethane foams are resistant to wear and tear maintaining properties over extended periods |
| Cell structure | High precision manufacturing allows for tighter consistent cell control |
| Durability | Resistant to some chemicals, moisture and mildew allowing them to be cleaned and reused |
| Fire resistance | Meet fire safety standards |
| Adhesion properties | Polyurethane foams adhere well to plastics which is beneficial adhesive and abrasive bonding |
