PVC Foamboard

Formerly listed on our website as Foamex. A solid and strong, yet lightweight material which is extremely versatile. Commonly referred to as Foamex, PVC Foam Board, Foam PVC, Foamalite, Forex or Palite.

For a specific price on the size of your board, please use our price calculator.

Material Overview

  • Printed direct to substrate with UV inks
  • 3mm or 5mm rigid PVC Foamboard available
  • Can be supplied as single or double-sided
  • M1/B1 fire-rated to comply with UK and European fire safety standards
  • Trimmed sides as standard
  • Lightweight and easy to install
  • Flexible and durable, can be stuck, screwed, nailed or riveted to any suitable surface
  • Suitable for both indoor and outdoor use
  • Maximum board size: 2400mm × 1200mm (approx. just under 8ft × 4ft) in one piece

Although the maximum board size is 2400mm × 1200mm (approx. just under 8ft × 4ft) multiple boards can be printed and easily placed side-by-side to increase the image area.

As the PVC Foamboard is lightweight, it can be easily installed with adhesive or strong double-sided tape as well as having the durability to be screwed straight through.

Our PVC Foamboard is printed with a VUTEk h5, direct to substrate with UV inks.

As with any foam-based products, please be aware of possible expansion in heated conditions and direct sunlight. If there is no room for expansion (if it is within a frame) this can cause the product to warp.

Standard product tolerance is expansion of up to 5mm per linear metre

Each item is printed and finished to your requirements.

Uses for PVC Foamboard

Notice

Please bear logistics in mind when planning your PVC Foamboard order and feel free to ask our advice. The rule of thumb is that large boards could need to be delivered by dedicated courier or by large pallet, which increases delivery costs substantially. Please call for more information on this.
