OEM Foam Applications

Armstrong believes strongly in the use of foam as a component in manufacturing and production applications. We have the ability to lead the development of problem solving custom foam solutions for our customers - especially in ways that they least expected. For example, one of our customers had a specific problem with too much reverberation in the hollow of a gun stock. All the materials they had tried were too heavy, awkward to use on the production line, or too expensive. In the end, an OEM Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) part was developed that outperformed all other materials to solve the problem:

• EPS is user friendly - required no special handling or training in production / assembly.
• The solution has no variation in size or shape, each molded foam part is a perfect fit… every time.
• EPS absorbs some of the recoil and reverberation.
• Our solution is cost effective.
• Armstrong molded parts have a short production lead time allowing for Just-in-Time supply and delivery and no customer inventory overhead.
• The production of the OEM foam part is flexible to adapt to the customers peak demand periods.

Our comprehensive 360º process and experience, coupled with the features and benefits of foam, create a powerful resource capable of solving many component and production problems. Call or email today to see if Armstrong can create a custom solution for you.
