Lightweight • Durable • Professional Quality
Transform your message into a bold, long-lasting sign with our Custom 5mm Foamalux-style PVC Foam Board Signs — ideal for business branding, outdoor and indoor signage, promotions, directional signs, exhibitions, events, retail signs, and more.
Printed in vibrant full-colour direct print onto high-quality 5mm PVC foam board with a smooth, matte finish that ensures crisp, eye-catching visuals every time. The increased thickness versus standard 3mm PVC gives extra strength and durability for demanding environments and larger installations.
✔️ Excellent Durability:
Made from rigid PVC foam, our 5mm board is robust and long-lasting, ready to withstand both indoor and outdoor environments when used with appropriate UV print finishes. It resists moisture, weather exposure, and light impacts while maintaining shape and colour integrity.
✔️ Smooth, Premium Print Surface:
The bright white, ultra-smooth surface delivers sharp, vibrant graphics — perfect for full-colour branding, logos, and detailed text that grabs attention.
✔️ Lightweight & Easy to Install:
Despite its strength, 5mm PVC foam board is lightweight compared with materials like aluminum or wood. That makes installation simple — hang with screws, standoffs, adhesive pads, or frame mounts without heavy tools.
✔️ Versatile Applications:
Whether you need shop signs, property signs, event signage, exhibition displays, menu boards, wayfinding signs or promotional graphics, 5mm Foamalux-style PVC delivers flexible solutions for most signage needs.
✔️ Eco Options Available:
‘Foamalux Eco’ and similar PVC foam boards incorporate up to 80% reclaimed material — offering a greener choice without compromising performance.
👍 Pros:
Weather-resistant & durable for both indoor and semi-permanent outdoor use.
Excellent print quality: Colours stay bright and designs crisp.
Easy fabrication & installation: Can be cut, drilled and mounted with common tools.
Lightweight, structural strength: Easier to handle than heavy plastic or metal.
Custom sizing: Print any size you need (contact us for bespoke dimensions).
👎 Cons:
Not as long-term outdoor as aluminum signage: Prolonged UV exposure can eventually degrade edges/print if unlaminated.
Heavier than thinner boards: Slightly more material cost vs 3mm PVC.
Environmental considerations: PVC production has sustainability impacts unless recycled options are chosen.
Choose your preferred finish:
• Matte (non-reflective) — ideal for readability in bright light.
• Semi-gloss / Gloss — enhances brand colour vibrancy.
• Optional anti-graffiti lamination available for high-traffic outdoor installs.
• Standard and bespoke sizes available — from small directional signs to large retail panels.
• Cut to any height and width you need — point-of-sale, wall mounts, hanging signs.
