KAPA®
Overview
For more than 40 years now KAPA® is synonymous for lightweight foam boards with a polyurethane foam core. The KAPA® foaming technology is globally unique. The KAPA® product portfolio includes individual paper-based cover layers and applications range from model building to substrate for printing and advertising messages.
KAPA® is an extremely efficient lightweight foam board:
- Flat surfaces can be used on both sides
- High-quality cover layers
- High level of stiffness and dimensional stability
- Optimum flatness even on thin sheets
The polyurethane core provides a high level of stiffness and heat-resistance, it can be easily cut and cut out (either manually or with a jig saw) without causing the foam to crumble.
