Display Protection

Portable devices are easily dropped; this can damage expensive components. Can you imagine living without your iPhone, Blackberry, or iPad for a day? The trend toward larger and more expensive screens in thinner devices means that it is more important than ever to protect the display. PORON® Urethane Foams absorb and distribute impact energy, preventing unwanted cracks in display screens.

Shock Protection

As electronics become more sophisticated and pervasive, greater impact protection via slow recovery materials is needed for sensitive applications. PORON ShockSeal™ foam reduces impact force by up to four times that of competitive materials. In addition, ShockSeal materials absorb as much or more energy when compared to higher density materials.
