5 easy steps to DIY Custom Cut EPE Foam

Titan AV DIY foam inserts are available in EPE foam + EVA foam in a variety of colours and shadow foam options.

Which Foam is Best?

We recommend EPE or EVA foam to create custom foam inserts - and honestly, they're both good.

Made from high density closed cell foam, EPE & EVA offer excellent durability, shock absorption & can be exposed to water without absorbing it which is particularly useful to prevent moisture & mould build up. Plus they offer good insulation properties to maintain an even temperature around your gear.

EPE Foam

EPE is a medium dense foam that's best known as the material used to make pool noodles. It’s easy to cut with a Stanley knife or blade, plus it’s around a third of the price of EVA foam. If you’re on a tight budget go with EPE foam.

EVA Foam

EVA hard high density foam (85kg/m3) is the hardest or firmest type of foam we offer. If you tour a lot or your gear cops a fair workout then EVA foam is the best choice for you. It's used to make thongs, yoga mats and blocks, packaging, boat decking and fenders, gym mats and cosplay costumes.

EVA Foam

Due to its greater density, EVA requires a Trim Router ($99 at Bunnings) to neatly carve into it. If you'd like to learn more about shaping EVA, read our article on How to Make Custom Inserts with EVA
