Buoyant, Chlorine-Resistant Closed-Cell EVA Blocks
When swimmers step onto the pool deck—whether they are children learning basic water safety, competitive athletes refining stroke technique, or fitness swimmers building lower-body endurance—the training tool they reach for is the swimming kickboard and training aid. Built to endure constant exposure to treated pool water, chlorine, and harsh sunlight, aquatic training blocks require a unique combination of extreme buoyancy, skin-friendly comfort, and long-lasting chemical resistance.
At Fusion Foams backed by the multi-decade manufacturing excellence of Somani Enterprises(established in 1980) at our advanced production facilities in Delhi and Haryana we engineer and supply high-spec EVA foam flooring solutions designed for rigorous athletic environments worldwide.

For Manufacturers: High-Performance EVA Blocks for Aquatic Equipment
For water sports equipment brands and aquatic product fabricators, selecting the right raw material dictates product success:
- Superior Floatability & Density: Formulated with optimized low-density closed-cell EVA to provide maximum upward buoyant force without adding unnecessary weight.
- Chlorine & Chemical Resistance: Highly resistant to harsh pool chemicals, bromine, and saline water treatments, preventing material breakdown or crumbling over time.
- Seamless CNC & Die-Cutting: Our EVA foam sheets and large blocks respond exceptionally well to mechanical cutting, routing, and sanding, allowing manufacturers to carve custom kickboards, pull buoys, and water dumbbells with pristine edges.
- Vibrant Color Variety: Available in high-visibility neon colors and fade-resistant palettes essential for swimmer safety and retail appeal.
Key Technical & Material Specifications
- Material Matrix: 100% closed-cell Ethylene-Vinyl Acetate (EVA) copolymer compound.
- Buoyancy Performance: Engineered for high positive lift-to-weight ratios in aquatic environments.
- Durometer Hardness: Calibrated comfortable-firm Shore hardness (typically spanning 35 to 45 Shore A) balancing rigidity with comfortable body contact.
- Thickness & Block Dimensions: Available in thick slab blocks (up to 100 mm+) and custom sheet formats for versatile water equipment shaping.
Pro-Fabrication & Installation Best Practices
- Shaping & Finishing: Use sharp band saws or CNC routers to shape raw EVA blocks, followed by fine sanding to create smooth, rounded hydrodynamic edges.
- Rinse After Use: Rinse training aids with clean tap water after pool sessions to maximize lifespan and eliminate residual chemical exposure.
Frequently Asked Questions
Find clear answers to commonly asked questions about our Swimming Kickboards App products.
Closed-cell Ethylene-Vinyl Acetate (EVA) foam blocks are the global standard for aquatic aids because they provide exceptional buoyancy, lightweight comfort, and chlorine resistance.
No. Their 100% closed-cell structure completely seals out water, ensuring the kickboard never waterlogs, becomes heavy, or loses buoyancy.
Yes. Our specialized aquatic foam formulations are highly resistant to chlorine, bromine, salt-water treatments, and prolonged UV sun exposure.
Yes. We supply manufacturers with high-thickness EVA blocks and sheets that can be easily CNC routed, cut, and sanded into custom kickboards and pull buoys.
Our foam solutions are backed by the multi-decade manufacturing excellence of Somani Enterprises, established in 1980, operating from advanced facilities in Delhi and Haryana.
Yes. They feature smooth, skin-friendly, non-abrasive surfaces and high-visibility colors, making them ideal for swim schools, children, and beginners.
Low-grade open-cell or unverified foams absorb water quickly, become waterlogged, degrade under pool chemicals, and crumble apart under normal use.
