Plastic Foam for Floats/FADS
Help. This is frustrating. I've seen this a million times in my life but I don't know the name for it. Guys use it all the time for floats here and cover it with canvass. Works great. It's the same type of material they use to pack electronics (I think). Or it looks very similar to it. Does anyone know the name for it? I've tried to explain to my Indonesian packing suppliers and they have no idea what I'm talking about. Thanks.

Ethafoam.
