Custom foam fabrication built right from the core outward

We are one of North America’s largest foam fabricators, combining the capacity to handle heavy industrial runs with the precision required for custom foam fabrication.

Built for Scale. Trusted for Consistency.

From protective transit layouts to everyday home goods, we manage your project cleanly from raw concept to final delivery.

We operate over 250,000 square feet of independent foam manufacturing space across Tennessee, Missouri, and California, anchored by our design hub in Connecticut. By keeping production entirely under our roof, we maintain direct control over quality and timelines that multi-vendor brokers simply cannot offer.

After 38+ years in this business, we know how to spot manufacturing bottlenecks before they ever impact your delivery date. Leading brands in the automotive, defense, and retail sectors partner with us for clear reasons: predictable production schedules, straightforward communication, and highly competitive wholesale foam pricing. Whether you need a massive retail rollout or are looking for reliable foam manufacturers to secure your supply chain, we deliver consistent results every single time.

The legacy of HLJ Foam. Heritage, scale, and American craftsmanship

We started back in 1988 as Allied Aerofoam, building a foundation for reliable custom manufacturing that dictates our operations today. Across our key foam manufacturing plants in Lexington, Tennessee, and West Plains, Missouri, we combine practical American craftsmanship with modern technology to produce foam, fiber fill, and packaging for national brands and major retailers.

Over the years, we have brought our design expertise, fabrication lines, and logistics under one unified leadership team. This gives our clients across different industries a single, dependable domestic source that understands their entire supply chain. We rebranded as HLJ Foam in 2020 to better reflect our expanded capabilities, our growing HLJ Foam products line, and the diverse needs of our customers.

Services & Capabilities

Extensive experience in foam fabrication, taking your initial ideas and manufacturing them to last.

Some foam companies source their materials overseas, cross their fingers, and hope for the best. HLJ Foam products are built differently. Everything is formulated, poured, cut, filled, and shipped right here at home.

Driven by decades of domestic filling and engineering experience, we deliver the kind of physical consistency that only comes from owning the process end to end. Our capabilities span advanced cutting tooling, automated product wrapping, and turnkey contract manufacturing for names like Pottery Barn and Nike. When brands like that put their reputation on a product, they need a partner who takes quality seriously.
