Gone are the days of constructing monuments with sandblasted redwood or brick and stucco. The new tried and true way is manufactured EPS foam, expanded polystyrene foam.

This is the same material used and seen at your favorite mardi gras parades, amusement parks and zoos for creation of cartoon animals, characters and ride facades.

This highly-compressed large block of foam is computer-cut using a hot wire on a 3-axis gantry. From there everything is hands-on craftsmanship. Once embossed graphics are added, a thick coating of acrylic resin is added to give it its structural integrity. Experienced artisans pay the attention to detail, sealing, painting giving the monument its life-like appearance.
