If you need signage or displays that are eye-catching, durable, and easy to work with, look no further than Foamex boards (also known as foam boards). Their combination of lightweight handling and impressive print clarity makes them a favourite for everyone from retailers to event organisers—and with good reason.
What Makes Foamex Boards Stand Out?
Foamex boards are made from rigid PVC foam—a material that’s strong yet light, providing a smooth, flawless surface for vibrant printing. Available in handy thicknesses (typically 3mm or 5mm), they’re equally at home indoors or outdoors. Their waterproof qualities mean that your message endures, whatever the British weather throws its way.
Where Can You Use Foamex Boards?
- Event Branding: From exhibition stands to stage backdrops, Foamex boards let you transform any space. Quick to set up and even easier to move, they’re ideal for pop-up promotions or trade shows.
- Retail & Point-of-Sale: Need sales promos or informational graphics that look polished but won’t weigh down your shelves? Foamex fits perfectly, mounting cleanly to walls, windows, or shelving.
- Corporate Environments: Create professional office directories, meeting room signs, or decorative branding that carries your company’s identity into every corner.
- Outdoor Messaging: Built to handle the elements, Foamex boards are great for construction site notices, estate agent boards, or festival wayfinding.
- Bespoke Creative Projects: Because Foamex is easy to cut or shape, you can push the boundaries—think custom logo cutouts, mascots, or thematic display pieces that help your brand stand out.
Enhanced Print Quality and Customisation
High-definition digital printing ensures your artwork looks sharp, with colours that hold up under sun or spotlight. Opt for single- or double-sided prints, special finishes like matt or gloss lamination, or even protective coatings for extra resilience. And with sizes from A6 up to large custom panels, your design ambitions are in good hands.
Effortless Installation and Versatile Mounting
Whether you’re a DIY-er or leaving it to the pros, Foamex boards make installation a breeze. Attach them to walls with adhesive, hang them using drilled holes, or place them in portable display frames. Their lightness makes transportation and setup fast and hassle-free—vital when time is money.
