If you’re looking to organise your toolbox, Shadow Foam makes it easy.


Just imagine being able to easily spot when something is missing, or knowing with certainty that all of your equipment is returned and protected after use. Due to Shadow Foam’s unique customisable properties, having too many items is never a problem.

Shadow Foam is a multi-layered polyethylene foam that makes organisation as simple as cut and peel. Use any sharp knife to cut around your item, then peel back layers for depth. Shadow Foam is water and common chemical resistant, so if there are any spills, just wipe them off with no problems. It is available in seven colour variations with either a colour top, or colour base, and enhanced with a UV stabiliser to ensure the colour never fades.

The Cut and Peel Foam Solution

Shadow Foam is a one-of-a-kind, award winning product. It is 100% polyethylene and designed with a unique structure that allows it to cut cleanly, and peel easily. This allows anyone to create professional-looking foam liners for their toolboxes, flight cases, systainers, and much more…

Shadow Foam combines the ease of use of a pick ‘n’ pluck foam, with the strength and quality of an expensive custom CNC foam liner. Getting your tools organised is as simple as cut and peel. Keeping your gear protected and organised at an affordable cost has never been easier!


If you’ve ever been stressed searching for a tool, or felt the pain of replacing a broken piece of equipment… then Shadow Foam is for you.

In the Festool Systainer T-LOC boxes, everything has a place of its own and is properly organised especially with Festool foam inserts. Hand tools, machines, accessories, and small parts all have their place in the Festool T-LOC Systainer.

The Festool Systainer T-LOCs can be connected to one another but also to a Systainer Classic, Sortainer, SYS toolbox and SYS Storage box. The open, close and connect is the central control element found on the Festool Systainer T-LOC which combines the three functions in one.

The Festool Systainer Inserts work perfectly with the entire system, especially for those looking to organise, protect and ensure their tools look super tidy.

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.
