- Specialized foam converter businesses are the primary suppliers for custom semi-rigid foam inserts and typically operate from industrial facilities with cutting equipment
- Standard foam materials used for case inserts include LD18-45 and Plastazote grades
- CNC-based case manufacturers may impose programming charges on top of material costs for custom foam insert designs
Depends on
