Livedale supplies whole flexible polyurethane foam blocks to trade and manufacturing customers throughout the UK, either delivered as a complete block or slit to order into foam sheets before dispatch.
If you want a block converted, simply tell us the foam grade and sheet thickness required. We can slit or slice the complete block into sheets ready for further cutting, fabrication or production.
Don’t need a whole block? Smaller quantities can be ordered directly from our Shop Foam Sheets range, with a wide choice of grades and sheet sizes available online.
Whole foam block prices are quoted on request rather than fixed online, allowing Livedale to provide the latest price based on current availability and market conditions.
Call Livedale on 01942 825144 for current foam block prices and availability.
Whole Foam Blocks from a UK Foam Supplier
As a UK foam block supplier and foam converter, Livedale supplies block foam to businesses using larger or repeat quantities of flexible polyurethane foam.
Customers with their own conversion equipment can purchase a complete block for cutting, slitting or further processing in-house.
Whole-block supply is suitable for many commercial users, including:
- furniture and upholstery manufacturers
- bedding and mattress manufacturers
- caravan and motorhome manufacturers
- automotive and marine trimmers
- contract furniture manufacturers
- foam converters and fabricators
- packaging and component manufacturers
If you already know the foam grade or specification you require, provide the details when you contact us and we can check current availability and price.
Already buying blocks elsewhere? We are equally happy to provide a quotation so you can compare your current foam block price.
Foam Blocks Slit to Order into Sheets
Buying a complete block does not mean you need your own block-slitting equipment.
Livedale can slit the whole foam block into sheets before dispatch, giving businesses purchasing foam in volume a practical alternative to carrying out the initial conversion themselves.
Blocks can be sliced into the sheet thickness required, subject to the grade and specification.
When requesting a quotation, tell us:
- the foam grade or specification
- required sheet thickness
- quantity of blocks
- whether the foam is required whole or slit into sheets
The complete block is purchased for this service.
If you only need part of a block, our View Our Foam Sheet Range page will normally be the more economical and practical choice.
Why Are Foam Block Prices Quoted on Request?
The price of polyurethane foam blocks can change as manufacturing and supply conditions move.
Factors affecting foam prices can include:
- foam manufacturer price changes
- polyurethane raw material costs
- energy and production costs
- availability of particular foam grades
- transport and freight costs
- supply-chain disruption
- wider international market conditions
These movements are particularly relevant when purchasing a whole block because of the volume of material involved.
With individual converted sheets, smaller changes in the underlying material cost can often be absorbed more easily. A complete block is much more exposed to changes in the current cost of foam.
For that reason, Livedale quotes whole blocks at the latest available price rather than publishing a fixed figure that could quickly become outdated.
It Pays to Compare Foam Block Prices
If your business regularly purchases foam in volume, even a relatively small difference in the cost of each block can become significant over the course of a year.
It therefore makes sense to shop around.
Livedale works hard to remain highly competitive on block foam and bulk foam supply, so even if you have used the same supplier for years, it is worth asking us for a current comparison.
Supply is important too.
Raw material shortages, manufacturer availability or wider supply-chain disruption can occasionally affect particular foam grades. Having another established trade foam supplier available can help when maintaining production is important.
A quick call allows you to compare both current price and availability.
Foam Conversion at Livedale
Livedale is a genuine UK foam converter, carrying out foam cutting and processing at our Wigan facility.
Flexible slabstock polyurethane foam is supplied in large blocks before being converted into sheets and other usable formats. For customers purchasing complete blocks, Livedale offers two straightforward options.
Whole Block Supply
Have the complete block delivered for conversion, fabrication or production within your own business.
Block-to-Sheet Conversion
Have Livedale slit the complete block into foam sheets to the required thickness before dispatch.
This provides a straightforward solution for businesses purchasing flexible polyurethane foam in bulk, whether they operate their own conversion equipment or prefer Livedale to carry out the initial block-to-sheet conversion.
Don’t Need a Whole Foam Block?
A complete block will not be the right option for every customer.
If you require smaller quantities, several different grades or foam for individual jobs, our Shop Foam Sheets Online range allows you to purchase the foam you need without committing to a full block.
Foam sheets are generally the better choice if you:
- require smaller quantities
- use several foam grades
- purchase foam job by job
- don’t want to hold a complete block in stock
- want straightforward online ordering
- need sheets ready for cutting or fabrication
For larger or repeat requirements, contact us for a whole-block price and compare the options.
