FAQs

How long does the foam last?

Can I reuse the foam?

How do I dispose of the foam?

Dispose of the foam according to local waste disposal guidelines. It is generally not biodegradable.

Can I use this foam for artificial flowers?

How should I store the foam?

Store the foam in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Troubleshooting

Foam does not absorb water quickly.

Ensure the water is room temperature. Gently submerge the brick and allow it to sink naturally. Do not force it under the water.

Flowers are wilting quickly.

Make sure the foam is saturated before arranging and add water regularly. Ensure the flowers are properly inserted into the foam.

Foam is draining water too quickly.

Ensure the container is watertight. Check for any damage to the foam that might be causing leakage.
