Engineering & Design Support

Application-driven design, feasibility, and configuration guidance.

Manufactured in Raleigh, NC

U.S.-based builds with production-focused processes.

Prototype-to-Production

Feasibility, prototyping, and scaling support from one team.

Composite Metal Foams of Various Sizes, Shapes made from Different Materials

Select standard forms or request a custom geometry.

Panels

Maximum cross-section: 4' x 4'

Rods and Tubes

Multiple diameters and lengths

Sheets

Thicknesses as low as 0.04" 

Functional Porosities

Beyond lightweight strength, CMF’s functional porosity allows infusion with epoxy or other fillers to meet specialized operational needs and design targets.

Machinable CMF Components

Drill, tap, and fasten into CMF components—machining operations similar to conventional parent materials are achievable.

A glimpse into the remarkable performance of metallic “bubble wrap”

Impact Absorption

x
higher impact energy absorption than an equal-volume solid parent metal.

Heat Transfer

x
lower thermal conductivity for steel CMF compared to equal-weight solid aluminum

Fire Protection

x
longer fire protection at 2,200°F compared to its solid parent material.

Nuclear Shielding

x
higher X-ray and neutron shielding for high-Z steel CMF compared to equal-weight solid aluminum.

Lighter Weight

+x
lighter than its bulk parent material
