What Are Foam Board Signs?
Foam board signs, also known as foamcore signs, are a rigid material made of a foam core sandwiched between two firmly adhered sheets of paper. They are sturdy, portable, and affordable. They make for great indoor promotional, decorative, or display items. Custom foam board signs feature a professional-looking matte surface and are commonly used in retail stores, offices, trade shows, and during corporate events. They are ideal for menu boards, event decorations, and photo prints.
Foam board printing is a suitable solution for short- to mid-term usage. These signs last around two to three years indoors if they aren’t exposed to direct sunlight and high temperatures. We print foamboard signs in custom shapes and sizes, providing a highly versatile platform to print any design.

Foam Board Printing Technology
We use UV inks to print custom foam boards to ensure they remain vivid and that your graphics don’t fade for a long time. You can order your signs with single- or double-sided printing to make use of the entirety of the available surface of your product, doubling your message’s visibility. You can also print different designs on each side.
Foam board posters are available in two thicknesses: 3/16” and ½”. The thicker option offers a prolonged lifespan and additional durability.

Popular Sizes of Foam Board Signs and Posters
You can order custom-sized foam board printing for any need or purpose. The substrates we use measure 96”x48”, so any order between that and 4”x4” is doable. The most popular sizes of foam board printing include 12”x18”, 16”x20”, 18”x24”,24”x24”, 20”x30”, 24”x36”, 30”x40”.
Shape Options for Foam Board Signs
To help you get your messaging right and bold, we print custom foam core signs in any shape you’d like. While most people order signs in a standard square or round shape, you have the option to choose the same, in addition to signs with rounded corners, circular or oval, as well as in a custom shape or a custom shape with a border. Please note that we only cut the perimeter of these signs.
Mounting Options for Foam Board Signs
Foam board posters come with a range of mounting options. Select the needed accessories on our design tool and order them along with your display. Please keep in mind that you’ll also need to select the number of drilled holes and their positioning if you want us to drill them for you.
Direct Mounting
Stick foam board posters directly to the wall or any other surface with command strips. This option doesn’t require drilled holes and it won’t leave any residue. The recommended way to apply this option is by placing strips on the four corners of your foam board poster. They can support up to 12 Ibs of weight, so rest assured that the product stays put.
Free Standing
The foam board isn’t self-supporting, but you can lean it against a wall or put it on a stand. We offer easel backs that work just like the easels of photo frames. They’re intended for relatively smaller foam prints. Read all the relevant information about the sizes of the easels and the products they can hold while choosing your accessories on our tool.
Hanging
Since foam board signs are light, you’re free to hang them on the wall or storefront window. If you’ve chosen custom foam board printing on both sides, consider hanging them from the ceiling for maximum efficiency. Choose suction cups and hooks or zip ties from the accessories.
