EVA Foam Rubber Sheets

EVA Foam is a type of foam rubber used in industrial and commercial applications. Used for Sports Equipment, Toys, Orthotics, and more.

Intec Foams supply and convert EVA Foam for industrial and other applications. EVA Foam is otherwise known as Ethylene Vinyl Acetate foam. Products can include Foam Sheets, Expanded Foam Rubber, Mats, Sports Equipment, children’s toys,  and more. EVA foam is primarily used in industrial and commercial applications. As EVA is a closed cell foam, it is particularly suited to gaskets or similar applications.

EVA foam is a co-polymer of ethylene and vinyl acetate

EVA foam is closed cell and therefore impervious to liquids, so is ideal for applications such as sealing foam. EVA can also be used in IP (Intrinsic Protection) rated products, or as an insulating foam.

Is EVA a Foam or Foam Rubber?

The vinyl acetate used in EVA foam construction gives the foam a more rubbery and resilient feel, hence why it is often referred to as foam rubber. This is in contrast to polyethylene foam at the same density. Polyethylene foam (PE Foam) and EVA Foam are so alike that you will often get people referring to PE as EVA, and vice versa.

EVA Foam Conversion

EVA Foam is a polymer that approaches elastomeric materials in softness and flexibility. It can however, be processed like other thermoplastics.
