Where to get Divinycell?

[jav301]

I have to tackle some spongy balsa cored deck soon. I'd like to use Divinycell foam but can't find a UK source of small quantities. Anybody got a lead?

Thanks

Think East Coast Fiberglass sell it

They don't do Divinycell but do have some promising-looking alternatives. eg3D Core. Reasonable price too.

I have seen lots of references to Divinycell but do not recall seeing it for sale in the UK. Am I correct that it is a closed cell foam (PVC, PET?), with a scrim back and scored and drilled? If so I bought a Gurit product from Marineware , near Southampton which is similar - see https://marineware.com/core/m-core/corecell-cmat
Easy Composites also sell a similar product although without the scrim backing -https://www.easycomposites.co.uk/#!/core-materials/closed-cell-foam-and-3dcore/easycell75g-infusion-grooved-closed-cell-pvc-foam-core.html

I am making up some vacuum infused test panels using 3D core and pleased with the results but they are described as being more suitable for vacuum infusion rather than hand layup.

Have you worked with these products before? If not, and would like a few samples, I can probably put some in a envelope and post them to you. If you’re interested send me a pm, now known as a conversation I think.

Thanks all.

That Gurit foam seems to fit the bill. And they'll supply amateurs so I qualify.
