D3O® Recycled Foams contains two grades of D3O® ZeroTM materials. This recycled material is the latest innovation from impact protection experts at D3O. D3O® Zero™ has been designed to protect the things that matter while innovating the manufacturing process to reduce waste.
Available in four thicknesses and two densities, D3O® ZeroTM is suitable for a range of applications requiring impact protection.
To create D3O® Zero™, surplus D3O® material from D3O factories is ground down and mixed with new foams, and the mixture is shaped into large cylindrical bales of D3O® Zero™. Next, D3O skives sheets in various thicknesses ranging from 2mm to 10mm for customers. The material can then be die cut of thermoformed to suit various protective applications.
