Engineered for Performance & Comfort
From shock attenuating products for sports equipment to precision moulded and die-cut medical device packaging and orthopedic devices, our Product Engineers work directly with customers to create solutions that meet and exceed expectations.
Shock Absorption Foam for Sports & Athletic Padding
Sports equipment needs foam that is comfortable, lightweight, flexible, and able to handle repeated impacts. Products such as shin guards, helmet liners, shoulder pads, and joint braces use foam that moves with the body while helping absorb shock. Lightweight closed-cell foams such as EVA and cross-linked polyethylene can be used for sports padding, but they come with limitations. NITREX® foam offers inherent compression set resistance, while maintaining its cushioning and protective properties after repeated use in temperatures as low as -20°C.
Key Requirements:
- Flexibility: Moves naturally with the body without limiting movement.
- Weight: Keeps equipment light to reduce fatigue.
- Moisture Resistance: Closed Cell material prevents sweat and dries quicker.
- Breathability: Perforated or textured surfaces improve airflow while maintaining impact protection.
