FOR INSULATION CONTRACTORS & FOAM FABRICATORS

Foam & Insulation Cutting Optimizer

Free nesting software for rigid foam boards, insulation panels, and foam fabrication. Calculate material needs, reduce waste, and generate clear cutting diagrams for your crew.

Stop Throwing Away Good Insulation

Rigid foam insulation isn't cheap—especially premium boards like polyiso and XPS. Between odd-shaped walls, window cutouts, and rim joists, it's easy to waste 15-20% of your material with poor planning.

EZNESTING's foam optimizer helps you plan every cut before you start. Know exactly how many boards you need, minimize waste, and keep more profit in your pocket.

  • Reduce foam board waste by 10-15%
  • Calculate exact material quantities
  • Plan cuts for complex shapes
  • Save scraps for smaller pieces

Materials We Optimize

Expanded Polystyrene (EPS)
Extruded Polystyrene (XPS)
Polyisocyanurate (Polyiso)
Mineral Wool Boards

Features for Foam & Insulation Work

Simple tools designed for the practical needs of insulation contractors and foam fabricators.

Panel Size Optimization

Arrange insulation pieces on standard 4x8 boards for maximum coverage with minimum cuts and waste.

Multiple Thickness Support

Work with different foam thicknesses—1", 2", 4" and more—organizing cuts by material type for efficient workflow.

Kerf-Free Cutting

Foam cutting typically has minimal kerf loss, but account for hot wire or saw blade width when precision matters.

Offcut Tracking

Save usable scraps from larger boards for smaller pieces on future jobs. Reduce trips to the supply house.

Job Material Calculator

Know exactly how many boards you need before starting. Order the right quantity and avoid mid-job supply runs.

Print-Ready Cut Sheets

Generate clear cutting diagrams your crew can follow on the job site. Label pieces for easy installation.
