RoFoam in marine environments

Water, weather and biological exposure are everyday challenges in marine settings. RoFoam XLPE foam performs reliably under:

 Continuous saltwater and freshwater exposure
 Elevated humidity and temperature cycling
•  Prolonged moisture exposure
 Conditions that facilitate algae and fungal growth
•  Repeated mechanical loading and vibration

Excellent water resistance

RoFoam does not absorb water, preventing swelling, material degradation and loss of performance over time. This makes it well suited for flotation, sealing and insulation applications.

Resistance to algae & fungal growth

Thanks to its closed-cell structure, RoFoam does not support algae, mold or fungal growth. This helps maintain material integrity, hygiene and appearance in humid and marine environments.

Lightweight yet strong

Lightweight materials are key to fuel efficiency and vessel performance. RoFoam combines low weight with high mechanical strength and long-term durability.

Impact & shock protection

RoFoam absorbs and dissipates impact energy while distributing loads evenly, supporting reliable buoyancy and fender applications in dynamic marine conditions.

Chemical & corrosion resistance

RoFoam resists saltwater, oils and common marine chemicals, ensuring consistent long-term performance in marine applications.

Versatile & easy to convert

RoFoam is a lightweight, versatile material that can be cut, laminated or further processed to support custom marine solutions.
