Shape and trim hard foam
Whether you're fitting ceiling tiles or creating an artwork, being able to shape hard foam quickly and accurately can transform your day. The Nordstrand Styrofoam Thermal Cutter requires no special training or skills, and allows you to create straight edges or complex shapes with no mess and no fuss.

No-mess foam cutting solution
The Nordstrand Thermal Cutter cuts cleanly and smoothly. As the heat reacts with the foam, it cuts without leaving the dust and debris common when using a conventional knife. With no dust or polystyrene filings left behind, cleaning up is easy. Designed for commercial and industrial use, it's a popular choice for hard foam modelling, DIY and construction.

Like a hot knife through butter
Reaching cutting temperature in as little as 10 seconds, the Nordstrand cutting system slides through hard foam with little resistance. It's easy to manoeuvre, making it possible to cut freehand shapes or to easily follow a guide. It's ideal for construction work, as it's easy to cut pieces to fit, whether you're trimming a tile or shaping an outlet point.

How to use the Nordstrand Thermal Cutter
The cutter is designed for use on hard foams, including: Styrofoam, Polystyrene (PS), PUR rigid foam, Neopor, Polyurethanes and PU foam. This is a hot knife system, with a blade that can be as hot as 500C (932F). It's therefore critical that you read and fully understand the operating instructions before using the cutter.
