Foam Props & Sculptures

Giant foam props built to perform.

We CNC-carve oversized marketing displays, product replicas, and film props from high-density foam—then armor them in polyurea and scenic paint.

Engineered for trade show booths, film sets, brand activations, and retail environments.

Documented Workshop Builds

From raw materials in the shop to finished statement pieces

Explore how custom 3D epoxy crests, oversized trade show props, and film set builds come together stage by stage—from swirled metallic mica resin and raw CNC foam to polyurea shells and final finishes.

Case Study 01 · Custom 3D Epoxy Signage

From Liquid Gold Mica to a 3D Dimensional Crest

Every custom epoxy sign starts in the cup with hand-blended metallic gold mica pigment swirled into liquid casting resin—and develops into a multi-layered 3D shield with raised brushed-gold scrollwork, custom iconography, and bold serif lettering over a textured royal-blue field.

Case Study 02 · Trade Show Activation

Oversized French Fry Display

Built to command attention across a crowded exhibition hall. Individual CNC-shaped foam fries are arranged at staggered heights inside a sculpted carton, encapsulated in a black structural polyurea shell, and finished with automotive-grade reds and airbrushed golden-toasted gradients.

Case Study 03 · Film & Television Prop

Full-Scale Foundry Bell for Film

A real cast-bronze bell of this scale would weigh over a ton. We CNC-milled the full-scale silhouette in foam—complete with raised Latin inscriptions and decorative bands—then finished it with a multi-layered aged metallic patina that reads as centuries-old bronze on camera while remaining practical for set rigging.

Engineering Advantages

Why agencies and prop masters build in coated CNC foam

Polyurea Impact Armor

We encapsulate raw foam in sprayed polyurea elastomer—creating a tough, dent-resistant shell built to survive trade show shipping and crowd interaction.

Lightweight at Monumental Scale

A 7-foot foam prop weighs a fraction of fiberglass, wood, or cast metal—slashing freight costs and allowing two crew members to position or rig it safely.

Direct from 3D CAD to Full Size

Our multi-axis CNC routers mill complex organic curves, product geometry, and raised typography directly from digital models with repeatable accuracy.

Camera-Ready Scenic Finishes

From high-gloss automotive color matching to weathered cast-bronze patinas and stone textures, finishes are tailored to hold up under studio lighting or close-up lenses.
