Imagine a seating material that breathes and conforms like open-cell foam but is resilient, waterproof and durable like closed-cell foam. Introducing Brock: A unique, patented composite foam that allows air and moisture to flow rapidly through it in all directions and maintains its strength and shape over time. Brock is made by fusing together closed-cell, resilient foam beads only at their tangent points. The airspace surrounding the beads in Brock helps air to circulate freely
  through the material, keeping the user dryer and more comfortable. In addition, the airspace and provides room for the beads to compress under load, improving the softness and contouring capabilities of the material. Brock is available in cross-linked polyethylene for improved durability and softness and polypropylene for structure and support. What types of seating capitalize on Brock Foam?

Medical Seating
Wheelchair cushions made of Brock keep the user cooler and dryer, thereby reducing the risk of skin maceration attributed to excessive moisture build-up. In addition, Brock is resilient enough to withstand extended compression over time without losing its resiliency and shape.

Brock is used by Ride Designs to make innovative, comfortable, cooling wheelchair cushions.

Outdoor Seating
Outdoor cushions made of Brock allow rain and snow to flow through the cushion continuously without damaging the integrity of the material. When combined with the right fabric, Brock Foam makes weatherproof outdoor cushions a reality.

Automotive Seating
Brock is the first polyolefin foam that is soft enough to be a viable, cost effective replacement for urethane foams currently utilized in seats, arm rests, head rests and head liners in cars, motorcycles and other motorized vehicles.

Marine Seating
Have you ever been bouncing on your boat cushion in rough seas and whacked your butt when the cushion bottomed out? Brocks ability to offer superior impact absorption adds a safety factor to the softer foams used in boat cushions. A layer of Brock Foam under the reticulated foam will help prevent the sitter from bottoming out of the cushion in those rough seas. It can replace some of the thickness of the reticulated foam, and at a lower price,even reduced the cost of the cushion. And because it is a porous closed cell foam, it won't retain water and will dry quickly.
