MATERIAL DATA SHEET

 Single Sided– Foam board can be digitally printed direct to the face of the material on our large format printers using UV cured inks which offer market leading print quality, robustness and longevity.

 Double Sided – Foam board can be printed on both sides with the same or varying artwork images. Our large format printers allow for perfect registration given accurate double sided prints.

 Matt Lamination Protect your printed graphics with a matt over laminate and give your print a completely flat appearance which will not reflect light. Available on prints up to 1600mm wide

 Gloss Lamination Protect your printed graphics with a gloss over laminate and give your print shiny high gloss appearance which brings out colours and reflection. Available on prints up to 1600mm wide

 Dry-wipe Lamination Transform the surface of your Foam board into a dry-wipe board capable of being written on with dry wipe pens. Available in both gloss and matt dry wipe on prints up to 1600mm wide.

 Anti-Graffiti Lamination Once applied to the surface of Foam board our anti-graffiti laminate will give a high gloss finish whilst offering protection to the print and the ability to clean away pen, paint and spray damage.

 Anti-Slip Lamination perfect for any material which will be used for floor application our anti-slip laminates cover both internal and external applications and can range from 3 -12 months life span.

 UV Protection Lamination when looking to use your Foam board externally especially in sunny locations our UV shield laminates can reduce sun degradation extending the life of the printing.

 Crystal Protection Lamination will offer a physical coating protecting the print surface from damage and giving it a slightly textured matt finish. This makes it more robust to any surface marking.

 Square Cutting – Foam board can be supplied cut to any required square or rectangular panel size within the maximum sheet size. For guaranteed accuracy all of our material is cut on a laser guided cutting table

 Simple Shapes – including radius corners, circles, triangles and basic shapes are possible with a high level of accuracy and quality of finish when cut on our laser guided cutting tables.

 Complex Shapes – Complex shapes are possible when cut on our market leading Kongsberg X44 cutting table which is capable of drag knife and router cutting.

 V Cutting – using a special knife we can cut Foam board with a V cut to the reverse allowing it to be folded up to 45 degrees. This is great for creating freestanding displays and seamless angles.

 CAD cutting – Our camera driven Aristo and Esko Kongsberg cutting tables are capable of cutting your design to any shape including adding creases, scores or even v-cuts. Transform your Foam board into a range of products such as XXX

 Double sided adhesive – By applying an adhesive to one side of the material you can transform Foam board into a sticker. Our adhesive range includes removable, permanent and repositionable.

Vinyl application – you can add special colours to a design such as metallics or pantones not achievable through CMYK printing by applying plotter cut vinyls of a chosen colour or finish to the material face.

 Spot UV – Varnish – you can introduce areas of matt or gloss finish to your design with our digitally printed UV varnish inkjet heads. Pick out logos, text or images and bring additional focus to your print.

 Strut – Make your print freestanding with the application of a strut to the reverse. This can be a single small rudder strut or a large box strut for bigger displays. We now also offer a more permanent metal strut option.

 Velcro – looking to attach your print to a wall? We can apply velcro hook and loop to the reverse allowing it to be attached to a wall or surface and easily removed and replaced. Popular for exhibition stand graphics.

 Magnetic Tape – with magnetic tape applied to the perimeter of your print you can affix it to metal walls or any other metal surface. Often used in the exhibition industry or in point of sale retail environments

 Packing in sets – we offer a full collation and packing service, especially useful when you have multiple items or designs that need to be sent to different locations. A very popular extra finishing service we offer with point of sale campaigns.

Foam centred board is for internal use only. It has a lightweight foam based core sandwiched between paper liners on each side. It creates a material which is completely rigid and excellent for internal display graphics. The trade-off for the lightweight properties and rigidity is it is susceptible to damage and must be treated with more care than a Foamex board.

Once we have printed foam boards we have the capabilities in house to CAD cut them to shape making Kappa foam board ideal for standees, displays, cut outs and point of sale items such as strut cards.

We stock different brands of foam centred board including Kappa foam board, Insite and M2 foam board. Premium Kappa foam board with a re-enforced aluminium liner is available for increased durability. Our printed foam board is produced on our UV digital flat beds, direct to media printing foam board gives a high quality finish without the risk of future de-lamination.
