One of our speciality foams, for many applications such as marine, sound insulation, packaging and construction. With many properties such as flame retardant, fuel resistant and UV resistant.
Certifications:
Fire Retardancy: ASTM 1530.3, BS EN ISO 4589 3:2017
Construction Certification: MRTS77, RTA 3204
Marine Certification: NATA 14722
Sheet sizes are:
2400 x 1200mm (2.4 x 1.2m)
To calculate how many sheets are required:
To cover an area (m2)
To cut many rectangles or squares
To fill a space (m3)
To float a maximum weight above water (Kg)
For Marine Applications:
• Does NOT absorb water.
• It is resistant to cleaners, oils, high-octane petrol, diesel or kerosene
• You can bend it or cut it to fill any space
• Doesn’t wear away from abrasion
• Can be removed at anytime or if the hull needs to be repaired
Density – refers to the mass per unit volume of foam material. Higher density foam is firmer, lower density foam is softer.
StickyBack – a peel-off adhesive tape, for an easy stick-on foam solution.

Foam is light and it’s cellular structure is superior for bonding which makes a great bonding surfaces for glues.
A contact adhesive should be used, closed cell foams are air-tight – meaning the adhesive will not be exposed to air.
Some popular examples depending on the application are: liquid nails, gorilla glue or specific foam glue.
To use foam glue, apply it to both surfaces and let it dry (15 minutes) then stick them together (bonds on contact).
Just about any gap sealant, silicone or caulk can be used in addition with closed cell foam to create a seal for wall, floors, window etc.
Foam can be cut with a trade knife or blade, saws, even bread knifes can also be used.
The application and precision of the cut should be considered before deciding on a cutting method.
Straight edges can be used to assist with creating straight cuts.
*Please note the images of complex cuts like tool trays on our website is done by various CNC machinery at PJ Bowers.
Neolon™️ XPE Foam, a chemically crossed-linked recycled polyethylene closed-cell foam. It is a fire retardant, waterproof and resistant material.
Used by some of the biggest companies in Australia, Neolon™️ Foam is widely used in the marine industry as buoyancy/ floatation foam for boats, in the construction industry as foam insulation, expansion joints and gap fillers and in the packaging industry as shock-absorbing packaging foam and instrument control.
Floatation can be either basic floatation, which allows the vessel to stay afloat with a certain weight on board, or level floatation, which keeps the vessel floating level and prevents it from capsizing in calm water.
This foam complies with standards for resistance to hydrostatic pressure, stability under temperature cycling, resistance to water absorption, and resistance to hydrocarbons and bilge cleaner.
Strong resistance to moisture, chemicals, cold weather & high temperature.
Sound Insulation – Results vary depending on frequency of the sound. Low Frequencies and high frequencies are reduced by up to 30Db. Mid frequencies are reduced by up to 15Db.
Temperature Insulation – a foil faced foam should be used see Neolon XPE Full Roll or Neolon Foam Tube for foiled foam options.
