What is Polyurethane (PU)?
Polyurethane (PU) foam is a highly adaptable polymer foam produced by reacting polyps and isocyanates. By adjusting is formulation, PU foam can be engineered to achieve a wide range of densities, firmness, and performance characteristics. These unique attributes make it suitable for cushioning, sealing, acoustic, and vibration-dampening applications.
The benefits of using Polyurethane Foam:
-
Easily die cut, routed, or laminated into custom shapes
-
Compatible with pressure-sensitive adhesives and multi-layer constructions
-
Cost-effective solution for cushioning and protective applications
-
Excellent shock absorption and impact protection
-
Good compression recovery and resilience over repeated use
-
Lightweight material that does not add unnecessary mass
