What Makes Plastazote Foam a Phenomenal Choice of Material?

In contrast to other foams it is tough and flexible, defined by the regular shapes, sides and walls of the individual polyethylene cells. When Plastazote foam is compressed, each nitrogen filled cell acts like a balloon and causes the foam to bounce back into its original shape. This makes it an excellent choice for providing comfortable and durable neck immobilisation and support.
