Benefits

• Easier Handling (reduced transport costs, ease of installation)   
• Reduced Polymer Requirement (lower cost, environmental gain)         
• Improved Product Dimensions (anti sink in molding, increased volume without weight, increased thickness, increased rigidity) 
• Improved Insulation (sound, thermal)                     
• Cushioning (shock absorption)                         
• Design Esthetics (surface detailing, three dimensional patterns)                             
• Aquatic (the product may float)
