EPS and Polyurea: An efficient duo in modern stage design

Scenic Studios Design & Production • 8 de septiembre de 2025

In the world of set design, creating pieces that combine visual impact, durability, and practicality is key to the success of any production. That’s why the combination of EPS (expanded polystyrene) and polyurea has become one of the most efficient techniques for producing decorative elements and structures that not only impress but also stand the test of time.


EPS is lightweight, versatile, and easy to shape, making it the ideal material to bring complex figures, large-scale props, or detailed architectural elements to life. Its low weight reduces assembly time and logistical costs—an essential factor for productions with tight schedules.


Polyurea, on the other hand, acts as a protective shell. This high-resistance coating shields pieces from impacts, wear, water, and adverse weather conditions, maintaining their flawless appearance even during frequent setups and teardowns or in outdoor displays.



At Scenic Studios, we master this technique to transform creative concepts into buildable structures that exceed expectations. Our team and specialized workshops allow us to deliver ready-to-display pieces with high-end finishes, adapted to any setting: theme parks, trade fairs, corporate events, museums, or touring shows.


The combination of EPS and polyurea not only meets the technical needs of modern set design but also opens the door to innovative, long-lasting, and visually stunning creations.
