Among the many uses of the technical foams with which we work at ZFoam (which we group into categories: industry, packaging, sport and construction), it is worth highlighting that one of its most important applications is for the safety of people, both in the workplace and when doing sport: protective foams.
Occupational protective foams
There is a wide variety of technical foams that are commonly used in the manufacture of personal protective equipment (PPE) with which workers protect themselves from possible injuries or accidents. Among others, this means protective gloves, insoles for safety footwear, knee pads, elbow pads and helmets, to name but a few examples.
Likewise, these foams are also used to manufacture some types of ergonomic seats that help prevent fatigue at work, as well as long-term injuries.
Among the most commonly used materials in these items are polyethylene, polyurethane and rubber foams.
Protective foams for sport
When engaging in any sport, whether as a beginner or a professional, protective gear is also essential to avoid injuries of any kind.
Hence, Azote technical foams, with which we usually work at ZFoam, are especially suitable for their shock absorption capacity, lightness, resistance, impermeability, purity, consistency and their non-toxic composition, among other properties.
Among the protective sports gear which employ these foams are:
- Padded helmets
- Knee and elbow pads
- Shin guards
- Padding for body protectors
- Protective dungarees
- Sports gloves
Foams for tatami mats and sports flooring
The excellent properties of the foams with which we work, and the advanced processes we use to transform them, means we produce an extensive range of high-quality, durable, PVC-free and easy-to-install tatami mats and sports flooring.
These products range from school tatami mats, to approved tatami mats for judo, wrestling, karate, and a great many more. We can also provide you with under-floor protection (which we design for permanent rooms), and removable floors designed around jigsaw pieces for children’s play areas or kindergartens (Zetakid®).
In addition, you will find all kinds of protective gear to make any sports area safer, such as corners, columns, basket backboards, goals and walls.
All the items that we make available to you stand out for their high impact absorption in addition to being antibacterial, easy to clean and available in different sizes and finishes, thus adapting perfectly to your facilities.
Indoor & outdoor mats and roll mats
If you want to do activities such as yoga and Pilates, not to mention any type of gymnastics, it is necessary to have high-quality mats and roll mats suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.
At ZFoam we have an extensive collection of lightweight, ecological and PVC-free mats (single layer, double-layer, rolled or thermoformed) that can be personalised based on whatever use you wish to make of them. Among the properties that make these particularly sought-after items are:
- Lightweight yet resistant

- Hygienic, antibacterial and easy-to-clean materials
- Finishes that are pleasant to the touch and non-slip
