Oasis Deluxe Floral Foam Maxlife

When an arrangement is large, top-heavy, tropical, or has to survive transport to a venue, the foam underneath it isn't just structural — it's the difference between an arrangement that arrives perfect and one that doesn't. OASIS® Deluxe Floral Foam Maxlife (SKU 10-00120) is the professional standard for exactly those demands. Manufactured by Smithers-Oasis — the company that invented professional floral foam — Deluxe Maxlife is scientifically formulated and meticulously, consistently crafted to deliver maximum flower hydration and superior stem grip in the heavy-density construction that high-style, large-scale, and tropical floral work requires.

At a Glance:

• 48 bricks per case — 9" L × 4" W × 3" H each
• Heavy-density — superior stem grip for large, tropical, tall, and top-heavy arrangements
• Certified biodegradable: degrades 75% within 1 year in anaerobic environments (ASTM D5511)
• Pre-scored at halves and thirds for accurate, low-waste cuts
• Float-soak method — fully saturated in approximately 2 minutes
• Free shipping to all 48 contiguous U.S. states — included in listed price

Deluxe Maxlife is specifically engineered as OASIS's heavy-density foam — a meaningful distinction from their Standard Maxlife, which is medium-density and suited for everyday flowers like roses, carnations, and poms. Where Standard Maxlife handles everyday production, Deluxe is the choice when the design demands more: thick tropical stems like birds of paradise, heliconia, and anthuriums that would shift or topple in lighter foam; tall and asymmetrical high-style arrangements that need a secure foundation during transport; large centerpieces and statement pieces where stem grip and structural integrity aren't negotiable. Backed by OASIS's Maxlife certification — independently verified to degrade 75% within one year in anaerobic environments per ASTM D5511 — it's also the professional answer to growing client demand for more sustainable floral design practices.

How to Soak and Use OASIS® Deluxe Floral Foam Maxlife:

• Float and sink method only: Place the dry brick on the surface of clean, room-temperature water and allow it to absorb and sink naturally — fully saturated in approximately 2 minutes
• Never force the brick underwater and never hold it under a running faucet — forcing absorption traps air pockets inside the foam, creating permanent dry zones that cannot be corrected and will cause flowers in those areas to wilt prematurely
• Add flower food or floral preservative to the soak water before placing the brick for maximum bloom longevity
• Cut flower stems at a 45-degree angle immediately before inserting to maximize water uptake and foam contact
• Insert stems firmly — heavy-density foam provides a secure grip but stems should still be placed with deliberate, even pressure rather than forced
• Trim foam to fit snugly in your container — a tight fit is essential for large and top-heavy arrangements that will be transported
• Rehydrate daily: add water directly to the arrangement to replenish what flowers absorb
• Important: Once soaked wet foam is allowed to dry out completely, it cannot be effectively re-wetted — keep soaked bricks submerged until ready to use

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: What is the difference between OASIS Deluxe Maxlife and OASIS Standard Maxlife?
A: The defining difference is density. OASIS Standard Maxlife is a medium-density foam designed for everyday stems — roses, carnations, chrysanthemums, and poms. OASIS Deluxe Maxlife is heavy-density, engineered specifically for larger, thicker, and heavier stems including tropicals, large branches, tall flowers like gladiolus and delphiniums, and any arrangement where stem grip and structural stability are critical. If your design is large, top-heavy, tropical, or being transported, Deluxe is the correct choice.

Q: What does the Maxlife certification mean, and is OASIS Deluxe Floral Foam biodegradable?
A: Yes — OASIS Maxlife is certified biodegradable, independently tested to ASTM D5511 and verified to degrade 75% within one year in an anaerobic environment. This is a significant and verified environmental credential, not a marketing claim. For florists and studios responding to client demand for more sustainable practices, OASIS Maxlife is the professional-grade answer — delivering the same performance as traditional foam while meeting documented biodegradability standards.
