- Charcoal Foam
Our charcoal foam is a versatile, durable, and high-performance material designed to meet a variety of needs across multiple applications, including packaging, soundproofing, and safety. Charcoal foam's unique dark surface offers both functional and aesthetic advantages, making it the material of choice for those seeking durability, visual cleanliness, and superior shock-absorbing capabilities. This foam is available in two primary types - charcoal regular foam and charcoal firm foam - as well as in various forms, including solid sheets and egg-crate patterns, to suit specific requirements.
Charcoal regular foam is a medium-density, open-cell foam that provides a reliable cushioning solution suitable for applications requiring moderate shock absorption. Engineered for durability, it retains its resilience and cushioning properties over prolonged usage, even in settings with moderate wear.
Its dark, charcoal color minimizes visible dirt and disguises common aging effects like yellowing, often seen in lighter-colored foams. This feature makes it an excellent choice for applications where aesthetics and professional presentation are essential, such as packaging and protective padding.

Applications
Charcoal firm foam is a high-density version of our standard charcoal foam, offering enhanced durability, rigidity, and resistance to compression. Designed to handle repeated compression, Charcoal firm foam offers maximum resilience, making it suitable for applications that require repeated handling or exposure to heavy loads. Its density makes it an efficient choice for soundproofing environments where moderate to heavy sound absorption is required.

Applications
Charcoal egg-crate Foam, available in both Regular and Firm densities, is cut into an egg-crate pattern to optimize cushioning and air circulation. This unique texture distributes weight evenly across the foam surface, allowing it to cushion fragile or irregularly shaped items effectively while also enhancing airflow.
