Expert Tool Foam & Packaging Solutions
Established in 2007, Rout 1 has grown from a small unit to a large industrial workshop in Sutton-in-Ashfield, strategically positioned for efficient distribution. Our expertise lies in designing and manufacturing precision tool foam, presentation cases, and foam packaging solutions tailored to diverse industrial sectors. Utilising advanced CAD/CAM software and high-speed CNC routers, we deliver products to exact specifications while maintaining rigorous quality standards. Our commitment to customer collaboration ensures bespoke designs that meet specific organisational needs, from reverse engineering tools to creating custom foam inserts. With experience serving aerospace, automotive, medical, and other precision-driven industries, we prioritise protection, security, and efficiency in every solution.Our two-colour tool foam system enhances visibility and prevents foreign object damage, reflecting our attention to detail. We offer comprehensive design support, including CAD integration, on-site assessments, and sample prototyping to optimise layouts before production. Additional features like engraved identification, hard plastic inserts, and laser-etched tool kits demonstrate our adaptability to specialised requirements. Our foam packaging solutions safeguard delicate components during transit, compatible with waterproof cases, anti-static containers, and presentation-grade materials. By combining technical expertise with responsive service, we ensure clients receive durable, functional systems that streamline operations and maintain product integrity across global supply chains.

Services
Tool Foam
Custom-engineered tool foam systems organise and protect tools in workshops and transport. Our precision-cut inserts accommodate complex toolkits using two-colour foam for visibility. Available in multiple colours with options for engraved identification and hard plastic components, these systems prevent damage and unauthorised use while improving efficiency across industrial sectors.
Foam Packaging
Tailored foam packaging solutions safeguard precision components during transit. We design inserts for waterproof cases, anti-static containers, and presentation boxes. Our systems protect aircraft parts, medical equipment, and machinery spares using high-quality foams. Clients receive 3D design previews and sample testing to ensure perfect condition delivery for global supply chains.
