Customized Textured EVA Foam Sheets for Outsoles — Product Data

PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Closed-cell EVA outsole stock engineered for cushioning, traction, and long wear. Supplied as textured sheets ready for die-cutting or CNC, with compound, color, and pattern customized for sport, casual, sandal, slipper, and safety footwear programs.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

  • Material: EVA (closed-cell foam) outsole sheet

  • Applications: Outsoles, midsoles, heel pads, sandals/slippers, luggage parts, mats, protective padding

  • Density: Customizable (typical outsole range 0.18–0.30 g/cm³)

  • Hardness: 25–80 Shore (A/C per project requirement)

  • Thickness: Per request (common 2–15 mm; multilayer builds available)

  • Sheet Size: Standard and custom cut plans to minimize waste

  • Colors: Solid, two-tone, or Pantone-matched; marble/speckle options

  • Origin: CN

  • Feature: “Sole rubber sheet” format for in-house cutting or pre-laminated kits

KEY PERFORMANCE BENEFITS

  • Cushioning & Energy Return: Tunable resilience for sport or comfort lines.

  • Traction: Molded surface textures deliver dry/wet grip; CoF can be pattern-tuned.

  • Abrasion Resistance: Durable EVA compounds for extended outsole life.

  • Flex & Cold Performance: Optional cold-flex formulations for low-temp use.

  • Lightweight: Significant weight savings versus rubber blends.

  • Water & UV Resistance: Closed-cell construction resists water uptake; UV-stable colors on request.

  • Consistent Quality: Low compression set and stable hardness across batches.

TEXTURES & FINISHES (examples)
Herringbone • Ripple • Diamond • Hex/Honeycomb • Golf-ball • Wave/Siped • Dot/Micro-dot • Brushed • Pebble • Custom logo emboss/deboss.
Edges: square, beveled, or skived. Anti-marking compounds available for indoor floors.

OPTIONS & CUSTOMIZATION

  • Compound: Soft comfort to firm utility; anti-slip/wet-grip; anti-static options.

  • Constructions: Single layer, dual-density EVA, EVA+cork, EVA+rubber blend top-sheet, color-laminated stripes.

  • Sustainability: Recycled EVA content on request; in-plant regrind options.

  • Compliance: Material selections aligned to REACH/Prop 65 upon request.

  • Branding: In-sheet color stripes, embossed logos, print or transfer on exposed areas.

  • Packaging: Bulk or size-sorted packs; barcode/lot marking.

PROCESSING GUIDE (factory)

  • Cutting: Steel-rule die, CNC, or water-jet; keep blades sharp to prevent burring.

  • Thermoforming/Hot Press: Light heat/pressure can set curvature or bond layers; validate temperature/time by compound.

  • Lamination: EVA-to-EVA or EVA-to-textile with hot-melt films, flame, or adhesive press; priming as required.

  • Adhesion to Uppers/Midsoles: Use EVA-compatible contact cements or PUR; roughen bonding face; follow adhesive supplier specs.

  • Finishing: Edge skiving, buffing, and brushing for traction feel and aesthetic.

QUALITY & TEST SUPPORT
DIN abrasion targets, wet/dry slip on chosen pattern, flex/bend, hardness, density, and compression set—tested to your spec plan. Formamide/VOC reports available.

CARE & STORAGE
Store flat, dry, out of direct UV/heat. Allow sheets to acclimate to cutting room conditions for best yield. Clean with mild soap/water; avoid solvents on finished colors.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • Lead Time: Standard sheets ~25 days; add 1–2 weeks for special lamination, printing, PSA backings, or kit-cut sets.

  • Samples: Yes—texture decks and compound/hardness swatches are available.

  • Soft/Firm Options: Compounding and expansion are tuned to your hardness and feel.

  • Recyclability: EVA closed-cell foam is recyclable where facilities exist; production offcuts are recycled in-plant.

  • Build from CAD: Provide CAD/DXF of outsole outlines and any milling details; sample tooling typically starts within two weeks.
