Novus™ – a reconstituted foam

The Vita Group manufactures square and round reconstituted foam blocks constructed through a process of bonding granulated post-industrial foam waste. We process our offcuts into rebonded foam and reintroduce it into the production cycle. In this process, they are bonded with foam remainder reduced to flakes with a binding system on a polyurethane basis under pressure. Applications include mattresses, underlay, furniture, reinforcement foam and more.   

Our rectangular and round reconstituted foam block is a high-quality product which is made from offcuts of PU foams. The offcuts or ‘trim’ is sourced from controlled and known sources from within The Vita Group. During production, trim is reduced to flakes and a binding system based on polyurethane chemistry is applied with high-pressure steam curing the blocks.

Step 1: Recycle Trim

Foam trim is graded then shredded.  None foam contamination is removed before granulation to controlled size. Graded granulated foam is sent to specified storage prior to moulding.

Step 2: Rebonding

Different granulated foam grades are weighted and blended to meet product formulation requirements. Binder is added to the foam and resulting foam binder mixture is moulded to specification density and then cured.

Step 3: Foaming and Conversion

The moulded, cured foam is peeled to the correct thickness, and, if required, the backing is laminated to the surfaces. The resulting peeled and laminated material is cut to length and width to form the finished product, then sent for packing.
