#39 Using Foam in Set and Prop Construction | Motion Picture

This bulletin provides guidance on the safe handling, use, storage, and disposal of foam used to construct stage sets and props. Foam products are made of petroleum distillates. They can ignite when exposed to heat sources or release vapours during application or use.

Only approved fire-resistant foams should be used. When sourcing products, ask for guidance from the supplier, the local fire authority, or a production safety representative.
