PU foam is non-structural, and not water(vapour)tight. Using it as a structural foam in boats, at least in a sandwich construction, is a costly mistake.
PU foam is what Tigerfoam claims what it is: insulation foam. Works great for that...

Hi there,
I'm also based in Spain, and so far the best supplier I've found is Fibermax

I am currently in the preparation phase, planning the construction site, techniques (hand layup, vacuum, infusion etc) and also locating providers for the required materials.

I have been googling around quite a lot today, but most providers for epoxy resins and associated materials are US based.

Is there anybody who can point to EU, Eurozone, or even Spanish (I live in Tenerife) sources for "value for money" sources for resins, cloths and core foam?
Try to contact Bodotex Composites in Denmark. Epoxy, corematerials and vacuum infusion systems
