Lightweight foams with excellent energy return and resilience for sports & leisure.
Why choose Zotefoams materials?
As expectations for comfort, safety, and performance rise, materials play a defining role in sports and leisure. Zotefoams’ advanced polymer foams deliver lightweight, durability, cushioning, and consistent performance across sporting goods, protective equipment, and lifestyle applications.
Design Flexibility
Mouldable for complex shapes and requirements.
Superior Material Consistency
Due to physical 3D expansion technology and no chemical blowing agents used.
Stable, Long-Term Properties
Reliable, repeatable performance thanks to consistent structure, minimal density variation, and lower-weight materials.
Enhancing performance
Sports orthotics
Sports equipment
- Impact protection (gloves, knee, elbow, tight, shin pads, back protection, helmet liners)
- Padel racquet
- Gymnastic mat
- Swimming aids & buoyancy vest
Lifestyle equipment
- Camping mat
- Backpack liners
Applications
Impact protection
Gloves, knee, shoulder, elbow, thigh and back padding: Our materials are lightweight yet tough and elastic, fitting like a second skin wherever impact protection is needed.
Applications
Tailored impact protection
Verstatile sport- or application-specific impact protection becomes a reality by pairing the high energy return properties of ZOTEK T and impact properties of ZOTEK NC with other energy-absorbing materials. By combining densities and adjusting thicknesses, the impact protection profile can be fine-tuned for every application.
Applications
Swimming aids & buoyancy vests
Engineered for aquatic performance: low water absorption with exceptional buoyancy and flexibility, making it ideal for use in flotation devices. Its lightweight structure ensures comfort and freedom of movement, while its durability supports long-term performance in challenging aquatic environments.
Applications
Racquet Sports
Specialist foam materials engineered for racquet sport performance, offering a unique combination of lightweight comfort, durability and energy return. Ideal for overgrips and handle wraps, they provide superior shock absorption and tactile control. As a core material in padel rackets, they deliver consistent rebound and responsiveness, enhancing power and feel with every shot.
