Service Overview

Custom Foam Inserts Cut to Fit

Off-the-shelf foam doesn't protect professional cinema equipment. Generic pick-and-pluck foam leaves gaps, allows movement, and eventually damages the very equipment it's supposed to protect. Innerspace Cases cuts custom foam inserts on a CNC machine to fit your exact equipment — no guessing, no adjusting, no loose cameras.

The process starts with your actual gear. Bring your camera, lens set, monitor, or complete package to our North Hollywood shop. Our technicians measure every component in the exact configuration it will travel in, then design a foam layout that maximizes protection and operational access.

We cut from professional-grade polyethylene foam (PE), Ethafoam, anti-static foam for electronics, and soft-lined materials for particularly delicate optical elements. Every insert is CNC-cut to tolerances that ensure a snug, rattle-free fit in your existing or new case.

Materials

Professional Foam Materials

Polyethylene (PE) Foam

The industry standard for cinema equipment protection. Closed-cell structure resists moisture, doesn't off-gas, and maintains resilience over thousands of cycles. Available in multiple densities.

Ethafoam

High-density polyethylene foam from Dow Chemical. Preferred for heavy equipment and cases subject to high-impact transport. Exceptional long-term resilience.

Anti-Static Foam

Required for electronics, hard drives, and digital equipment. Dissipates static charge to protect sensitive components. Used in DIT and video village cases.

Quick Answers

Frequently Asked Questions

What foam materials do you use?

We work primarily with polyethylene (PE) foam, Ethafoam (high-density PE), anti-static foam, and soft-line materials. We recommend the appropriate density and material based on your equipment weight and transport conditions.

Do I need to bring my equipment in?

We strongly recommend it. Spec sheets and measurements often don't account for accessories, cables, or real-world configurations. Bringing your actual gear ensures the insert fits perfectly.

Can you recut foam for an existing case?

Yes. If your existing case foam is worn, compressed, or no longer fits your current equipment configuration, we can remove the old foam and cut a fresh insert to fit your current package.

What's the turnaround on foam inserts?

Most standard foam inserts are completed same-day or next-day. Complex multi-tray layouts or large-volume orders may take 2–3 days. Rush options are available.

Do you cut foam for Pelican cases?

Yes. Pelican case foam cutting is one of our most common services. We remove the existing pick-and-pluck foam and replace it with a CNC-cut insert fitted to your exact equipment.
