Information about Plastazote can be obtained from United Foam
Plastics Corporation; one of their numbers is 508-352-2200.  It is a
closed cell, crosslinked expanded polyethylene foam. It can be cut,
slit and thermoformed like ethafoam. From the samples I have, it is
a much softer than ethafoam and comes in a variety of densities.  I
believe it is a product of Britain with this U.S. distributor; it's
more expensive than ethafoam.
