With over 40 years of experience manufacturing EVA foam, QUANZHOU WEFOAM TRADING CO., LTD., a company within the SANSD Group, has the knowledge and expertise to manufacture EVA foam boat flooring specifically for the fishing industry. Fishing boats are exposed to many unpleasant and corrosive elements such as fish waste and seawater, as well as the oils and fumes from fishing boat engines and other equipment. EVA foam, by nature, is a water repellant material. However, a closed-cell structure in EVA foam, if manufactured correctly, will help prevent the absorption of moisture and the growth of mold. EVA foam, by design, has a non-slip surface which can further be enhanced with a textured or brushed surface. Unlike other flat surfaces which can be very difficult to clean and may retain fish slime and other debris, EVA foam is very easy to clean. A quick rinse with fresh water will help remove fish slime and other debris. Since fishing boats are often rinsed with fresh water to clean the hulls, fishing equipment, etc, there is no concern for the harm of marine life as there would be with the use of chemicals.
We can provide eva foam boat flooring in various sizes with cut-to-fit options for irregular deck shapes, found on smaller and larger fishing boats. This foam is lightweight and will not affect boat performance negatively. The foam provides a cushioned surface and protects the boats deck from fatigue and prolonged sun exposure. This product maintains its appearance longer due to the properties that protect against UV fading. This product is GRS certified and has a wide variety of eco-friendly options.
Eva foam is an excellent material for fishing boats, and for other types of boats and floats as well, because it is very durable and can be used to cover large surfaces. Eva foam is especially good for boats because it provides cushion and lessens the effects of a hard surface on the body. Because this product is low maintenance and easy to clean, it is especially good for boats where the environment is hard to control (i.e. open water).
