Raise your game with world-class PU-solutions
Sports Equipment
We can customise polyurethane products for any use within the sports equipment and leisure activity sector where a lightweight, adaptable and robust material is required.
Although surfboard production is one of the most common uses for polyurethane in the sporting and leisure industry, many other applications are possible, such as use in buoyancy devices and flooring for gym or sports halls.
Pearl Polyurethane offers a large range of polyurethane-based products for different applications that can be tailored to your needs.
Contact us and talk to our R&D team to develop a solution meeting your requirements.When compared to alternative materials, polyurethane offers multiple benefits. Antistatic, ESD, oil resistant or high-comfort, cold-flex or systems based on renewable materials are all possible. Adjusting the chemical composition of the material means it is possible to alter the mechanical properties to almost any desired setting. Furthermore, the reaction profile can be easily customised to fit your manufacturing or production requirements.
Pearl Polyurethane systems are based on renewable materials which help to contribute to environmental protection. Our solutions are not only environmentally friendly, but retain all values and mechanical properties as well as the processability.

Surfboards & Buoyancy Devices
PU is the surfing industry construction term referring to surfboards built from a polyurethane blank with polyester resin, while PE refers to polyurethane blanks with epoxy resin. These have long been the standard for most surfboard brands and are the most widely and affordable options still available.
Due to the foams weight and density, polyurethane-based boards sit a little lower in the water than those using alternative materials, helping surfers to keep their rail under water and providing the desired knife-edge feel when slicing through the wave’s face.
Being the right bulk to weight ratio also helps polyurethane-based surfboards handle choppy conditions better and they are less prone to being bounced around. Sitting lower in the water also has its benefits to barrel riding, providing more hold in hollow waves.
