The Cut and Peel Foam Solution

There's nothing worse than investing in new Makita tool storage to find that it’s not quite what you need. These Shadow Foam Makita organisers are simple to use and make a great addition to your tool storage. All you do is cut and peel the foam.  That's it. Just look at all the benefits you're going to see:


Keeping Your Tools Protected


Quality tools from brands like Makita can be expensive to repair or replace, therefore keeping them protected should be your first priority. This is exactly what our inserts are best at.


The foam organiser is designed and cut by you. Once done, you’ve created a durable and protective home for all your tools. That means any tool at all, be it small hand tools or even really large power tools.


Organise Your Tools Just How You Need


Because you are creating your own custom tool organiser, the layout can be done to ideally suit your needs.


Many off-the-shelf dividers, compartments or ready made inserts come with the tools laid out to suit the manufacturer. This defines where you can fit your tools, rather than being suited to your needs. Life becomes simpler and your tools more accessible when it’s customised to your own unique needs.


Our Shadow Foam inserts are just cut and peeled, meaning you'e in full control over the layout and accessibility of your tools. Meaning you can work more efficiently, and achieve faster results whenever you work with your tools.


Easy to Keep Clean


The material used in the manufacture of Shadow Foam is carefully chosen as it's super easy to clean. Any dirt, dust or debris can be easily wiped off, making the cleaning of your toolbox simple. 

Water and common chemical resistant
Easy to clean, simply wipe off any mess
UV resistance keeps the colours vivid
Anti-static/ESD characteristics
100% Recyclable PE Foam (where available)
HCFC free and odourless

Resistant to UV, Water & Many Common Chemicals


Another inherent quality of the Polyethylene used in the manufacture of Shadow Foam is that it's resistant to most common chemicals, UV, and water. What this means for you is that you can work in most conditions without worrying that your Shadow Foam insert might lose its shape, strength, or visual appeal.


HCFC Free, therefore no harmful odours


Many toolbox organisers for Makita cases can be made from materials which are not HCFC free. That can mean they're considered more harmful to the environment, or to us if the odours they ommit are inhaled. Our inserts are odourless and HCFC-free, so much safer for indoor use.


Affordability


Custom made Makita tool case inserts can be expensive. In some instances, you could be looking at hundreds of pounds-worth of investment just to keep your tools and equipment safe.


Shadow Foam, conversley, gives comparable results but far more affordably. As a result, thousands of people are now using Shadow Foam inserts as a cost-effective means of keeping tools safe & protected.


Suitable For Anyone With Makita Cases


Whether you're a builder with thousands of pounds worth of tools or a home DIY enthusiast, you will still benefit from investing in a Shadow Foam insert for your tool system.


Often, people can neglect their toolboxes, leaving them messy and frustratingly disorganised. This increases the risk of losing and damaging tools, but can also shorten the lifespan of your valued tools.


Just filter or search on this page to find the insert that works for your particular Makita toolbox. Thousands of others have done that already and are loving their Shadow Foamed cases. However, if you're not ready to make that commitment just yet, that's OK too. You could start with a Shadow Foam sample and try it for yourself before you decide. 

FAQs

The inserts re designed and shaped to fit the footprint of your DeWALT case or drawer

Check the product description for each DeWALT item listed, where we give a breakdown of all the cases that each insert will fit.

This is really up to you as it depends what you want to store in your DeWALT case and how deep the container in question is. You might even want to build up multiple layers of inserts. For small hand tools you might want to consider a 30mm depth of foam which would then allow you to cut down to a depth of around 20mm in which to house the items. Power tools might be better with a 50mm insert, giving you 40mm workable depth in which to cut them into the foam.

We do have more stock arriving all the time. So if what you’re looking for shows as out of stock, it’s worth checking again at a later date. If you need something more quickly for your DeWALT storage, and an alternative colour or depth of foam won’t work for you, perhaps consider making your own insert. We’ve created this easy guide to help.

Unless specified in the product description, no. The depth of foam for your DeWALT foam inserts will be as you select at checkout and the colour of the inserts in the pack would be the same.

Yes absolutely. You can get a sample of Shadow Foam here.

Our range of ready made inserts is growing all the time. But because there are so many models of toolboxes out there, we aren’t always able to make inserts for all of them. In these cases, we have standard sheets and packs of foam that you can cut down to create your own custom inserts for your DeWALT storage cases, check out this video tutorial.

Absolutely! Shadow Foam is reversible – either use the coloured side or the black side in your DeWALT storage – it's your choice.
