About Our Tool Inserts
Keeping your tools in order is vitally important when they are constantly in demand, losing them can be very expensive. We offer a wide range of foam trays and inserts that can be moulded or machined to the exact shape of your item to be protected.
One of the best solutions is the use of tool control foam, also commonly referred to as shadow board foam. These foams can quickly highlight if a tool is missing by using layers of foam in differing colours.
How Does Shadow Board Foam Inserts Work?
Shadow board is made from 2 colours. Once your tool is removed from the slot, you can clearly see if there is a piece missing. This is due to the colouring difference. As pictured on the right, black and yellow is a prime example of slots standing out.
5 ways that tool control foam can reduce your costs:
- Easily highlights if tools are missing, therefore preventing loss, theft, and the expense of replacements
- Visual aid to field engineers or staff on which tool to use, boosting their productivity
- Can help to avoid costly delays caused by operatives arriving on site without the required tools
- Enhances safety, eliminating potential for tools left inside machinery to cause expensive and time consuming damage
- Protects tools during transit, preventing collision with each other & cushioning from shock.
