Industrial Sponge and Foam
Industrial sponge and foam, commonly referred to as sponge rubber, is made of countless tiny air bubbles trapped in a solid or liquid polymer. It’s an ideal material for insulation, cushioning, sealing and other applications.
Industrial sponge and foam is fabricated by melting a special polymer material and frothing it. When it cools, the air bubbles are trapped in the material, giving it its sponge-like appearance. It results in a material that is both versatile and lightweight.
