Shing Yau excels in utilizing a variety of closed-cell foam materials, combining formulation design with process control to deliver functional foams tailored for diverse applications.
Below are the key materials we use, along with their characteristics and application highlights:
EVA(Ethylene Vinyl Acetate)
Material Characteristics
  • Soft and elastic texture with excellent shock absorption and impact resistance
  • Outstanding water resistance, moisture resistance, antibacterial properties, and thermal insulation
  • Highly versatile and moldable, suitable for printing, embossing, heat pressing, and other processing methods
  • Non-toxic, odorless, and compliant with multiple safety standards (e.g., EN71, REACH)
Common Applications
  • Interlocking floor mats, bathroom mats, seat cushions, trunk mats
  • Alphabet/number/animal puzzle mats and children’s safety play mats
  • EVA rocket skateboards, art sheets, modular storage boxes, children’s tables and chairs
  • Insoles, packaging inserts, anti-slip pads, and more
