Innovation in footwear doesn’t stop at style—it is rooted in materials that shape performance, comfort, and durability. Hypercell is Co.Bo.’s next-generation lightweight foam technology, designed to meet the demands of today’s most ambitious footwear brands. Engineered for performance, it combines exceptional resilience, comfort, and technical precision in a way that redefines what footwear components can achieve.

Performance Without Compromise

At the core of Hypercell is a unique balance of properties that deliver measurable results:

  • Enhanced durability (+60%) – resisting wear and tear to extend product lifespan.

  • Extreme lightweight (-30%) – reducing overall shoe weight compared to traditional injected EVA, without compromising strength.

  • High energy return (+70%) – providing responsiveness and minimizing fatigue for the wearer.

These features translate into superior performance across sports footwear, safety applications, and lifestyle sneakers alike.

Precision and Aesthetics

Unlike traditional EVA or PU systems, Hypercell ensures excellent dimensional stability, eliminating shrinkage and inconsistencies that complicate assembly. This precision guarantees not only a predictable production process but also a clean, uniform surface finish—critical for premium footwear where aesthetics are as important as function.

Versatility Across Applications

From high-performance midsoles to one-piece single-mold shoes, from targeted midsole inserts to lightweight fillers, Hypercell adapts to the diverse needs of the footwear industry. It enables designers to explore more complex geometries while giving brands the reliability and efficiency they require in manufacturing.

Sustainability at the Core

Hypercell is not only about performance. It has been engineered with sustainability in mind: up to 20% recycled content can be incorporated during compounding, while production scraps can be reprocessed through a dedicated regranulation system. This reduces waste and supports the circular economy—without compromising on quality or performance.

Engineered by CO.BO.

Behind Hypercell lies CO.BO.’s decades of expertise in injection molding for footwear. This innovation represents the culmination of technical know-how, research, and a vision for innvoation. By choosing Hypercell, brands gain access to a technology that not only delivers performance but also empowers them to differentiate through innovation, sustainability, and design freedom.
