HOW ARE SQUISHES MADE? Part I

HOW ARE SQUISHES MADE?

Well there are two ingredients that you need to make a squishy. These are made out of PU which stands for polyurethane. PU comes in 2 varieties, Gummy Cast Soft and Gummy Cast Hard. They are both made from urethane resin. 


FACTS ABOUT POLYURETHANE: 

  • Polyurethane was first researched in Germany by Friedrich Bayer in 1937

  •  1.6cm-thick polyurethane insulation has the same insulation efficiency as a 1.34m-thick concrete wall!

  •  That renewable raw materials can be used to produce foams for several applications such as mattresses.
