Foamex Boards

Foamex is a high-grade, rigid PVC foam board renowned for being lightweight yet remarkably durable. Despite the “foam” in its name, it is a solid, compressed material that maintains its shape and offers a smooth, flat surface.

Its versatility allows it to be easily cut, drilled, bent, and glued, making it a favourite for professional signage and display solutions. Because it is water-repellent and UV-resistant, Foamex is suitable for both indoor and medium-term outdoor applications, often lasting between 3 to 7 years in exterior environments.
