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.
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.
