FOAM BOARD
What is foam board and why choose it?
The foam board, also known as foam board, foam, foamcore or foam sheet, is a material composed of a rigid polystyrene foam core coated on both sides with paper, usually white or brown kraft. It comes in the form of panels or sheets and stands out for its smooth surface, ideal for printing, visual mounting and decorative applications.
Main features of foam board
One of the main features of foam board is that it is a very lightweight yet rigid material, allowing great ease of handling without sacrificing stability. For this reason, it is often used for mounting tasks, decoration and space division.
Foam board is especially used in sectors such as framing, advertising and marketing due to its versatility in event presentations, stand setups and promotional actions.

Uses of Foam Board
As mentioned earlier, foam board is a very versatile material with a smooth surface suitable for all types of printing. These advantages make foam board a product widely used in different sectors and for various applications.
Foam Board in Framing and Decoration
In the framing sector, foam board is used as backing for frames or photographs. It can also be used as a base inside frames since a sheet of foam board can enhance any image you wish to frame.
It can also be used as a decorative element without the need for a frame, as it can be applied directly to the wall without drilling. Homes, workplaces, galleries and exhibition spaces often choose foam board for wall decoration due to its versatility, rigidity and light weight.
Foam Board in Exhibitions
Foam board works very well as exhibition panels or displays, as it is often used to temporarily divide spaces in exhibition halls, to provide information about the exhibition, or as large decorative elements. Its main advantage for this use is its very light weight, making it easy to transport and install.
Foam Board in Architecture and Other Sectors
In the field of architecture, foam board is widely used to design models of future projects. Its lightness and ease of handling make it the preferred material for project and product presentations in many sectors.
As mentioned before, self-adhesive foam board is used for more sophisticated work since it allows more demanding applications. This is due to its adhesive layer on one face, which makes it ideal for models, signage or aeromodelling, among other uses.
