What is your foam made from?

All polyurethane foam blanks are made by mixing two liquids, a polyol and an isocyanate. Our polyol is based on >80% recycling polyols that we source from the packaging industry (post-industrial). The rest consists of virgin polyol, additives and water. The Isocyanate we are using is MDI-based isocyanate (currently virgin). With this formulation, we can guarantee that at least ⅓ of the blanks you are using is not based on virgin fossil fuels anymore. These raw materials not only reduce the environmental impact but also maximize the performance creating a stronger and more durable board that keeps it’s flex throughout the life cycle. At the end of it’s life, we use a chemical process to liquify the foam again and turn it into the polyol needed to make new blanks!
(We are working hard on our new formulation replacing the current isocyanate with a recycled isocyanate as well which will significantly increase the recycled content in the overall blank to more than ⅔.)

Currently we offer six different models. Check out our catalog here. We are continuously working on introducing new models to cover a wide range of surfboard blanks.

What is your Blank density?

For the moment, we offer one standard polyurethane density that is comparable to the standard blue density of other blank manufacturers. However, we are working on a 6% lighter and a 12% lighter formulation. For more details send us a message.

What do you have in stock?

All models with standard rocker and stringer (plywood) are constantly available in moderate quantities. Custom orders (different stringers, rockers, colored glue lines or colored foam) will be produced after your order is placed. This will take up to three weeks until they get shipped to you.

What is the wooden component in the blanks?

The wooden component is an additive, and also an upcycled component, responsible for the small cell size, the very lively flex pattern and an elevated resistance against pressure dings.

Where does the color of your foam come from?

It is the natural color of the foam. It comes from the recycling components and the wood component we use!

Where do you produce?

Our foam is 100% made in Europe!

How does your recycling process work?

We are working with a patented process to turn the raw foam back into liquid state which is then used to create polyol with no loss in quality. Check out our recycling section where we explain it step by step here.

Can you recycle all kinds of PU foam?

Unfortunately, the polyurethane from standard white blanks cannot be recycled. We can only take responsibility for the material we’ve developed ourselves. Our foam is especially developed to be recyclable again. Therefore, we can only take back and recycle our own foam.

How can your foam be recycled?

The foam cannot be mixed with other materials and needs to be returned to us, to ensure the proper recycling. If you have some polyola foam leftovers, we mare more than happy to take it back. Get in touch with us.

Can I use epoxy / polyester as resin?

Yes, you can work with both resins.

Do I have to adjust my shaping process, when working with polyola?

Due to their chemistry they can be a bit more resistant while being shaped. But, generally in the way your work, polyola blanks are comparable to other polyurethane blanks on the market – that is, same tooling, same process. We try to make it as easy as possible for everyone.
