Stage props and sets with EPS forms

Compared to traditional wooden sets, polystyrene foam blocks offer a significantly lighter, quicker, and easier alternative to move and manage. This enhanced mobility allows productions to be more dynamic and efficient with set changes, facilitating smoother transitions between scenes. The lightweight nature of polystyrene foam blocks makes them an ideal choice for stage backdrops, as they are not only easier to handle but also safer to use. This reduction in weight minimizes the risk of injuries during set construction and modifications, enhancing overall safety for the crew.

Sculpting with Polystyrene Foam Blocks

When it comes to sculpting, medium-density polystyrene foam blocks are the preferred material for many artists and set designers. These blocks provide a superior finish when shaped, maintaining both cost-effectiveness and ease of carving. The versatility of medium-density polystyrene foam blocks allows for intricate details and smooth surfaces, making them perfect for creating detailed props and set pieces.

Additionally, our advanced cutting machines can precisely cut two-dimensional side profiles, providing a foundational shape for further sculpting. This technology streamlines the creative process, allowing for greater accuracy and efficiency. Artists can then build upon these profiles, adding depth and dimension to their sculptures with ease. The combination of machine precision and manual artistry ensures that each piece meets the highest standards of quality and realism, enhancing the overall production value of any project
