RoFoam in marine environments

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

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

Excellent water resistance

RoFoam does not absorb water, preventing swelling, degradation or 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 prevents algae, mold, and fungal growth, maintaining material integrity, hygiene, and appearance in humid and marine environments.

Lightweight yet strong

Low weight contributes to fuel efficiency and vessel performance. RoFoam combines leightweight with high mechanical strength and durability.

Impact & shock protection

RoFoam absorbs impact and distributes impact forces evenly, supporting safe and durable flotation and fender applications in dynamic maritime conditions.

Chemical & corrosion resistance

RoFoam resists saltwater, oils, and common marine chemicals, ensuring reliable long-term performance in marine and maritime environments.

Versatile & easy to convert

RoFoam is lightweight and adaptable, easily cut, laminated, or converted to meet specific marine or maritime requirements.
