What Is Polyethylene Foam?

Polyethylene foam is a type of closed-cell foam that is often used in packaging and cushioning applications. It is known for its durability, water resistance, and protective qualities. When it comes to gun case inserts, polyethylene foam is an excellent choice because it will protect your firearms from bumps, drops, and other types of impact. Polyethylene foam is also resistant to most chemicals, making it ideal for use in gun cases.

Polyethylene Foam Is Easily Customizable

One of the best features of polyethylene foam is that it can be easily customized to fit your specific gun case. Gunformz offers semi custom gun case inserts that are made to fit various types and sizes of gun cases. We provide foam gun case inserts that are semi custom, which is to say are about 95% completed — you simply order the insert, and customize the foam to fit your unique case if needed.

The Closed-Cell Difference

Closed-cell foam is different from open-cell foam in that it is made up of cells that are closed off, or not interconnected. This makes the closed-cell foam more durable and resistant to water and other liquids. Closed-cell foam is also less likely to absorb impact, making it ideal for use in gun cases.

Prevent Movement of Your Firearms

Another advantage of closed-cell foam is that it prevents the firearms from moving around inside the case. This is important because it can help to prevent damage to your firearms during transport. The closed-cell foam also provides a snug fit that helps to keep the gun case insert in place.
