The Cut and Peel Foam Solution

Shadow Foam is a one-of-a-kind, award winning product. It's 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 Milwaukee tool case simply and cost-effectively. Here's just some of the benefits our Milwaukee inserts can offer:


Keeps Your Tools Protected

Quality tools like Milwaukee don't come cheap to repair or replace. So protecting them should be a top priority. That's what Shadow Foam inserts do best.


Organises Your Tools Exactly How You Want


The foam organiser slots right into your case, but the layout of the tools is planned and made by you, so will exactly suit your requirements.


Often the inserts that come with tool kits can be defined to the manufacturer's specification, rather than suited to your own specific needs. Since our Milwaukee foam inserts are simply cut, then peeled, you are in total control over the design and accessibility of your tool organiser. The result? You'll work more efficiently, and find the right tool first time, every time.


Easy to Keep Clean


Polyethylene foam is super easy to clean. Any build-up of dirt or dust can be easily wiped away, making  cleaning your Packout or toolbox much easier. 

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 & common chemicals

Shadow Foam is inherently resistant to most common chemicals, UV, and water. So you can work in most conditions without worrying that your Shadow Foam Milwaukee insert might lose its shape, strength, or visual appeal.


HCFC-Free with no harmful odours

Many Milwaukee toolbox organisers can be made out of materials that are not HCFC free. Therefore they're often considered harmful to the environment.  Plus they can be harmful to health if any odours they ommit are breathed in. Our Milwaukee foam inserts are completely odourless and HCFC-fre.  So they're much safer for indoor use.

Affordable, yet strong and durable

Custom made Milwaukee tool box inserts can be expensive. In some cases, you might need to spend hundreds just to keep your tools and equipment protected, safe and organised.


Shadow Foam inserts are a far more affordable solution, whilst still offering all the same benefits of a custom made liner. Not least for that reason, thousands are already using Shadow Foam inserts as a way to keep their tools safe & protected when not in use or while travelling between jobs.


Suitable for anyone with Milwaukee storage

Whether you're in business with thousands of pounds-worth of tools or a home DIY tool user, you'll still benefit from investing in a Milwaukee foam insert for your tool case.


Sadly, many neglect their toolboxes, leaving them frustratingly messy & unorganised but this increases the risk of losing or damaging tools, potentially reducing the life-span of your expensive purchases.


Just filter or search on this page to find the right insert for your Milwaukee toolbox. Thousands of other people already have, and they love it. However, if you aren't  quite ready to make that commitment just yet, you can order a Shadow Foam sample and try it out 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.
