DESCRIPTION
Realistic Procedural Styrofoam – Lightweight EPS Foam Surface

This high-quality procedural styrofoam material has been meticulously crafted in Blender v4.0.2 using the Cycles render engine, delivering ultra-realistic foam detailing ideal for professional 3D artists, product designers, and visualization experts. The shader replicates the unique, lightweight texture of expanded polystyrene (EPS)—widely used in packaging, insulation panels, props, and disposable containers.

The shader is built using a 100% procedural workflow—no image textures—ensuring infinite scalability without resolution loss. Its customizable parameters allow easy control over bead size, density, roughness, and surface imperfections, giving you flexibility for close-up renders and large-scale scenes alike.

Whether you’re creating product visualizations, mockups, game props, or educational demos, this procedural EPS foam shader offers exceptional realism and workflow efficiency.

Geometry
No N-gons
N-gons are polygons with five or more sides which might cause issues in certain processes like rendering or animation. Learn more
No faceted geometry
Faceted geometry uses flat surfaces without smoothing, which can look unrealistic on curves.
Learn more
Manifold geometry
Manifold geometry ensures all surfaces are properly connected, avoiding issues like edges shared by more than two faces.

Textures & material
PBR textures
PBR textures simulate how light interacts with materials, making the model look realistic under different lighting.
Required PBR textures:
- Base Color
- Roughness
- Metalness
- Normal
Learn more
No embed textures
Embedded textures are stored inside the model file, increasing its size and sometimes causing compatibility issues.
Learn more
Square textures
Texture aspect ratio is the width-to-height ratio of a texture. Expected texture aspect ratio: 1:1
Learn more
Power of 2 texture sizes
Textures with dimensions in power of two (e.g. 512x512px, 1024x1024px) are used to optimize performance and memory usage.
Learn more
Assigned materials
Materials are applied to the 3D model to allow visualize a model's surface properties and appearance.
Learn more
UVs & naming
No UV overlaps
UVs overlap when multiple points on the 3D model's surface are mapped to the same point on the UV island causing texture stretching.
Learn more
UV unwrapped model
A UV unwrapped model means its 3D surface is flattened into 2D space, allowing textures to be applied accurately.
