Foamed PVC – white is also known as foam sheet or foam board. This particularly light material consists of a hard foam core, which is laminated on both sides with quality paper. Foamed PVC is a perfect material for presentations, displays and other point-of-sale materials. It is easy to print, print and cut. This foamed PVC sheet is white in colour and has a thickness of 4mm. Are you looking for a special size? We would be happy to cut the PVC foam sheet to your specific requirements. On delivery, they are provided with protective film on both sides.
PVC foam sheets are available in various colours and sizes. This sheet is white and has a slightly textured top layer with a matte appearance. The core material is free from artificial substances such as fluorine, carbon and chlorine. The top layers can be printed with all types of ink, including UV ink. This makes this type of sheet very suitable for the advertising industry. The PVC white foamed sheet can be used both indoors and outdoors, thanks to its UV resistance, fire resistance and sound and heat insulating properties. The PVC white foamed sheet has a long service life and is easy to recycle.

The advantage of foamed PVC is that the sheets are easy to machine, for example by drilling, sawing and milling. PVC foam sheets can also be deformed by heat. Paints, glues and cutting are also no problem. The soft board is easy to work with, for example, hobby or Stanley knives. You can also punch and perforate it perfectly, without the top layers becoming detached from the core.
These white foamed PVC sheets are suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications. Because it is so easy to work, the material is very popular with printers and model builders, but also with artists and hobbyists. Thanks to the easy workability and the good insulating properties, this material is becoming increasingly popular.
