XPS Craftfoam is a high-density Extruded Polystyrene (XPS) sheet designed for precision cutting, shaping and surface finishing...and its available in DARK GREY!
Be sure to check our the very talented Josh Foreman's Youtube for some amazing ways to use this material.
This is not EVA or PE cosplay foam — it is a rigid, closed-cell foam ideal for model making, architectural builds, scenic work and lightweight prop construction where structure and stability are required.
Sheet Sizes
600 × 250 mm
Thickness range: 10mmm, 25mm & 50 mm
What Makes XPS Different?
Unlike flexible EVA/PE foam used for costume armour, XPS is:
Rigid and structurally stable
Closed-cell with a smooth surface
Excellent for carving and sanding
Ideal for hot-wire cutting
It holds fine detail and maintains clean edges when cut, making it a strong choice for architectural and model-scale work.
Applications
Architectural models
War-gaming terrain & scenery
Model boats, railways & aircraft
Stage & screen lightweight props
Halloween displays & scenic builds
Product design prototypes
Floral & craft installations
XPS is widely used in professional model shops due to its strength-to-weight balance and uniform internal cell structure.
Working With XPS Craftfoam
Cutting
Hot-wire cutter (cleanest finish)
Serrated knife or floral knife
Hacksaw
Router, carving tools or drills
Hot-wire cutting produces a smooth edge with no dust, though ventilation is required due to light smoke during cutting.
