Slabstock Foam Producers

Slabstock foam producers are constantly challenged with reducing production costs, while maintaining or improving the quality of the foam they sell. VORANOL™ VORACTIV™ polyols can enable the foamer to simplify the foaming process, reduce waste and generate more consistent foam. VORANOL VORACTIV polyols deliver:

• Squarer and higher blocks with a more even, thinner block bottom
• Improved and consistent density throughout the block, leading to more consistent hardness — critical in flexible foam
• Smoother rise profile
• Complete elimination of the need to purchase, handle and store amine catalysts — thereby reducing costs
• Smoother side walls enabling reduced waste (fewer chunks need to be removed from the side of foam walls and there is less side wall peel when paper backing is removed. This produces a smoother side wall, reduces trimming required to get a clean edge, and leads to less waste.)

1) Cost savings from simplified processing
2) More consistent, uniform foams
3) Reduced odors in the factory and for end users of the foam

Many Dow customers have converted to VORANOL VORACTIV and are benefiting from the added value these polyols bring to their foam operations. Learn more about the chemistry behind VORANOL VORACTIV polyols.
