Our Foam Board Signs come in a range of materials, thicknesses, and sizes to suit your needs.
For a cost-effective yet high-quality foam board, 5mm KAPA®tex and 5mm KAPA®plast are excellent choices. KAPA®plast offers vibrant colours and sharp images, while KAPA®tex provides a textured, canvas-like finish. Both options are lightweight, making them ideal for hanging signs, retail promotions, and display boards.
If you need something more robust, our 10mm Smart-X® boards are the way to go. Being thicker yet lightweight, Smart-X® is perfect for direct digital printing, making it ideal for life-sized cutouts, exhibition displays, and wall-mounted signage. Available in dimensions up to 1500mm x 2800mm, Smart-X® is designed for both indoor and outdoor use, although prolonged exposure to extreme weather conditions is not recommended. For long-term outdoor signage, consider our Di-Bond Signs for added durability.
Our foam boards are easy to install and can be drilled into for secure mounting.
