The reason for their denial is because you asked for 2-4 sheets which will get damaged in transportation. :) They said a consignment of 40-50 sheets won't get damaged. Since your requirement is limited, in that case I guess some local hunting is required. Search for shops which sell packing materials, vinyl, advertisment boards, foam, etc. Try searching on www.justdial.com.

And I have seen shops which sell depron / bio-foam sheets to also have coro sheets. Reason: They all are used as packing / advertisement materials.

Best of luck, and keep us posted.

The way is found coro was i first located a coro sign, generally phone booths have such boards. I just went up to them and asked where they got it printed. Then i went to the printer and asked for the source. :)

These don't look like epp sheets. These are used I guess in packaging and all to prevent damage. I have seen epp sheets and they don't look like these. I may be wrong though.

gbisht, that is NOT EPP or Depron. That is EPE (Expanded Polyethylene) foam. As such, I've not heard of it being used for our purposes.

Amit, would be grateful if you let me have the contact details of this shop. I have my staff in New Del and get this shipped to Ghy.

Regards.

@VC sir, I didnt get the contact details but shop name was Jain Plastics. It will be easily identifiable as that area Chuna Mandi is a block of around 20-30 shops, all dealing with plastic supplies.
