Overview
PU, short for polyurethane, is a kind of open-cell foam material that is lightweight and more compressible than other foam alternatives, making it very versatile in many packaging applications. In addition, due to its soft characteristic, PU foam has high shock absorbency, turning this material a standard selection among many industries looking for added protection. Our polyurethane foam inserts are available in a wide range of densities and colors.

Die Cut
Process of cutting material using a series of dies—ideal for simple two-dimensional cutouts.
Wire Cut
Process of cutting material using a heated metal wire to melt and vaporize foam to create clean, crisp cuts.
Laser Cut
Process of cutting material using a high-power laser beam to cut and vaporize foam for smooth edges.
