Everything you need to know about PVC Foam sheets

PVC is a popular sheet material that is used in a wide range of industries, from sign making to mechanical engineering. The diversity of applications has everything to do with its properties of workability and insulation. PVC sheets can be shaped into any form, making them ideal for products with complex shapes.

The material is available in two types: foamed PVC and hard PVC. In our webshop, you will find both types, in nine different colours and in sheet thicknesses of 0.5 to 20 mm (hard) and 1 to 19 millimetres (white foamed). We saw all customised orders and deliver them as soon as possible.

Types of PVC Sheets

PVC sheets are available as foamed PVC and hard PVC, each suited to different uses.

Foamed PVC Sheets

Foamed PVC, often called PVC foam board or Foamex®, has a lightweight foamed core with smooth surfaces. It is easy to cut, print and shape, making it ideal for signage, displays and decorative applications.

Hard PVC Sheets

Hard PVC is dense, rigid and dimensionally stable with good chemical and electrical resistance. It is self-extinguishing and suitable for industrial and technical uses.

Applications of PVC

PVC is popular for indoor uses across the signage and construction industries. Common applications include:

  • Displays, signs and exhibition panels
  • Billboards and POS materials
  • Interior cladding
  • Technical panels where fire, sound or heat insulation is beneficial

Processing options

PVC sheets are easy to process. We provide detailed instructions for processing both foamed and hard PVC sheets:

  • Foamed PVC: Can be sawn, cut, drilled, painted, and bent. The smooth surface is ideal for printing and inscription.
  • Hard PVC: Easy to machine using sawing, drilling, and milling techniques. Hard PVC can also be bent using heat (filament).

Properties of PVC

It is important to know the distinction between hard and foamed PVC sheets. The sheets each have their own unique PVC properties. Understanding the properties of PVC sheets is essential:

  • Foamed PVC: Excellent chemical resistance, fire resistance, and sound and heat insulating properties. These sheets have a long service life and are recyclable.
  • Hard PVC: Good chemical resistance, electrical insulation, and self-extinguishing properties. Heat resistance is limited to a maximum of 60°C (short-term).

Maintenance of PVC

A major advantage of PVC is that it requires little maintenance and is easy to clean. You will find the required products for cleaning in our webshop.

Variants and colours

In our webshop, you will find white foamed PVC, coloured PVC foam board and hard PVC.

Thicknesses

In addition to the different colours, you have a choice of different sheet thicknesses, ranging from 0.5 to 20 millimetres. In order to easily calculate which PVC sheet fits your application, we have developed the thickness calculator. Choose a vertical or horizontal installation and look up the length and width that you have in mind in the table. This will give you the thickness that you need.
