most any local building supply retailer can provide a several types of foam in 
all sorts of thicknesses.  Get a mechanical engineer to look at the supplies 
and design a table whatever foam he chooses.
We used big blocks of 'Styrofoam'  and 2 inch thick sheets of packing foam cut 
to form an break down table. The Styrofoam, we wrapped in a shrink wrap film to 
help stabilize it.  Other low density foam will work.   The dielectric number 
for the bulk solid material does not apply when foamed to a low density.  I 
have measured it.
ps. to mention the obvious, don't use the metallized stuff.
