Hi Folks!

I’m trying to gauge interest for a run of some closed cell foam pads.

I have access to lots of zote foams products like Evazote EV30, EV50; Plastazote LD24 etc.

Was looking at 3/8″ and 1/2″ thickness for an upcoming production, but may order more sizes and styles if they’d sell.

Curious if folks have any requests for or interest in affordable high efficiency CCF Pads.

When this stuff drops, there will be BPL coupon code.

I’d be interested in some evazote. I don’t know the difference between the product names you mentioned but I like the 1/8″ stuff GG sells except that I’d like it a little thicker. 3/8″ sounds good.

@landrover

yeah, I’d be in for some of this. I’d have to trust your judgment on the foam types.

Do these come on a roll? It would be awesome to buy a “wide” (25″ or wider) roll, and then cut to length. I’d be most interested in 3/8″, but maybe also in 1/8″.

Yes, I’d be interested in 72″x25″ either 3/8 or 1/2

Sources that I’m aware of for small orders

Oware, but they only have 60″

EVA foam
This is a denser grade, very nice cushioning but a little to heavy to be ideal for my purposes, supplementary insulation for winter. The quoted 2lb/ft^3 is about right.

I would be interested. 1/4″ thick, 25″ wide, length no longer than 72″. I may also be interested in 1/8″ thick, 20″ wide to pop on top of my xtherm.

Interested if you sell rectangular scored ones that can be folded like zlite pads.

I take it this idea went nowhere?

If not, I’m interested in ¼” x 25″ x 72″.
