Marybeth,

I have never seen 24" perforations but only 12" of which I have used dozens of rolls.  You probably could have it custom made but that would be expensive unless you place a large order.  Uline is a good place to look, but I would imagine you already know of them.  Is there any reason why 12" perforations will not work?  In all of the use by clients about which I am aware, I have never seen it tear along these perforations.  Perhaps if there was a lot of movement of heavy objects on top of it, it would fail.  But in general use I would imagine it will be fine.

Need to find a supplier for 24 " wide  X 1/8" thick rolls of microfoam or polyethylene foam that is perforated every 24 inches.  All I can find is 12" perforations.  Feel free to contact me off-list.

 

Thank you in advance!
