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.
