Australia's foam industry is an ever-evolving sector, offering versatile options for various applications. From flexible foams with different grades to rigid foams serving industries like sign writing and construction, and closed cell foams boasting buoyancy and thermal insulation properties, the foam sector is an essential component of modern manufacturing. Flexible Foams Manufactured in diverse grades, flexible foams cater to a range of needs. The industry standard code, such as 16-100, denotes the density and hardness of the foam. Foams with higher density have a longer lifespan but come at a higher cost, while hardness, measured in Newtons, signifies the 'feel' of the foam. This flexibility allows for tailored solutions, from packaging to comfortable cushions. Rigid Foams The foam industry extends its reach by providing rigid foams, which are crucial in sign writing, building, and construction. Materials like polystyrene (EPS and XPS), PIR, and rigid polyureth
