INFORMATION ABOUT
WORKLITE® GPS FOAMKORE®
Worklite GPS Foamkore reduces material weight up to 80%* by capturing a lightweight core between two thin high-density faces, resulting in a strong lightweight panel. Core material is a graphite–enhanced polystyrene that provides compressive strength, moisture resistance, and Class A fire rating. Due to this polystyrene’s reflective property, the core has a stable R-Value at 5.0 per 1” thick. Acceptable decorative surfacing materials for lamination include high-pressure laminates, veneers, metals and many other semirigid materials as well as stain or paint.
*Compared to conventional panels made of plywood, particleboard and MDF

PRODUCT TESTIMONIAL
WHAT OUR CLIENTS ARE SAYING...
“The Kerfkore Worklite product was the perfect material for the art piece I wanted to create. I needed something that had a physically and visually substantial structure, while being lightweight at the same time and this material had it all.”
