Thanks to all those who replied. My question was:


To P and O's,
        We are currently using 1/4 and 3/16 Thermofoam/Aliplast in the
manufacturing process of our spinal braces and other orthotic devices, eg.
lining. We are looking for a more reliable distributor. Does anybody have
any suggestions and/or contacts wherever they may be. Our P and O
department is located in Melbourne, Australia.
Thank-you

Here are the responses to my posting.

Simon,
We are having the same problems as well with a reliable supply of
Thermofoam/Aliplast. There are two companies here in Brisbane which do
import there own.
1/ GB Orthopaedics 1/4 only. Ph 07 38443371 Brad George
or
2/ Morris Surgical 1/4 & 1/8 Ph 07 3357 5944 Peter Morris

No one to my knowledge imports 3/16 other than the usual supplier. Our
Department is thinking seriously of importing ourselves but have not made
the necessary inquiries yet.

Regards,

Dear Simon,
