i guess its a bad idea for the following reasons.

1>we do have foam suppliers in india. :headscratch:

2> imagine the shipping cost.. :Rs: :Rs: :Rs: :banghead:

3>last but not the least CUSTOMS  :Rs: :banghead: :banghead: :Rs: :banghead:


We do have suppliers in almost every metro city ....you just need to find the right one...


You guys should search on RCI for person who can supply foam sheets


in PUNE we have a shop name Kings Paper deep in the middle of city somewhere ..(not affiliated with that shop)....they call it high density thermocol

NOTE:Alternate building materials...coro, balsa wood , pine wood...................................correct me If i m wrong

The cost of 6mm depron is 13"x39" (10 sheets) is 40$ plus 26$ shipping and handling charges (International Shipping/Handling
USPS First Class or Priority Mail International: 6-10 days $25.99) maybe not a bad idea . Total cost will be Rs-4092 for 10 sheets its. Reasonable price

I suggest your train cost to the metros near you will be less than importing. Go to those cities and buy in bulk enough for it lifetime

Could you guys please give the names of such dealers in at least the metros where we can buy the high density foam, depron and EPP..... Till date I have not been able to find one.  I am using the standard foam available in any city that too I find it difficult to buy over 2 inch of thickness.  I am at Allahabad and am looking for dealers in Lucknow.  Can someone help.

Hi Eric. I will start MANUFACTURING EPO foam in 5-6 yrs from now  :giggle: Plus, an in-house CNC cutting machine and a molding machine to make plane kits designed by RCI members. You can be the supplier & distributor across India  :hatsoff: It'll be the cheapest. I dont think there is any such factory in India!!
