PVC Foams

Product description

Our PVC foam core materials provide exceptional performance and versatility across various industries. Available in densities ranging from M040 to M250, these products deliver optimal strength-to-weight ratios, durability, and resistance to thermal and chemical stresses.

These materials offer tailored solutions for both lightweight and high-strength applications. They demonstrate excellent mechanical properties, including high compressive and shear strength, ensuring structural integrity even in demanding environments. Their lightweight composition reduces overall weight while maintaining superior performance, making them ideal for weight-sensitive designs. PVC foam cores are thermally stable, perform reliably under varying temperatures, and resist exposure to moisture, oils, and chemicals, ensuring long-term durability. Moreover, they are easily processed and compatible with various manufacturing techniques like vacuum infusion and hand lay-up.

Applications span diverse industries. In the marine sector, they are used for hulls, decks, and bulkheads, providing lightweight yet strong solutions. Transportation industries employ them in automotive and aerospace projects (microlighting) for panels, floors, and partitions, improving efficiency and reducing emissions, while sports and leisure products benefit from their use in kayaks, canoes or surfboards.

PVC foam cores are designed to meet the highest standards of performance, offering a perfect balance of lightweight efficiency and robust durability.
