FAQ
Q: Can I get samples?
A: Yes—sample sets in various colors/textures are available for fit and finish checks.
Q: Can you adjust softness/firmness?
A: Yes—hardness and density are tunable (e.g., 15 or 25 Shore C, others on request).
Q: Can you build from my CAD file?
A: Yes—provide STEP/DWG/DXF (or dielines); we’ll review for DFM and produce samples quickly.
Q: Is EVA recyclable?
A: EVA is a closed-cell polymer and can be recycled; in-house off-cuts are recycled where possible.
