foam panels

Cushioned building sheets

Foam panels are rigid sheets of plastic foam used primarily for insulation and lightweight construction.

Common materials include polystyrene and polyurethane.

They appear in building insulation, craft projects, soundproofing, and display boards: We lined the basement walls with foam panels.

The term sometimes refers to acoustic foam used in recording studios.
