In the ever-evolving world of signage, businesses and organisations are continually seeking effective and cost-efficient solutions to convey their messages. One such solution that has gained immense popularity is Foamex signs. But what exactly are Foamex signs, and why are they a preferred choice for many?

What is Foamex?

Foamex, also known as foam PVC, is a lightweight yet durable material made from polyvinyl chloride (PVC). It features a smooth surface that is ideal for printing and comes in various thicknesses, typically ranging from 3mm to 10mm. Its lightweight nature makes it easy to handle and install, making it a favourite among businesses looking for versatile signage solutions.

Benefits of Foamex Signs

1. Durability: Foamex signs are resistant to moisture and UV rays, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.
2. Lightweight: The lightweight nature of Foamex makes these signs easy to transport and install. This is particularly beneficial for businesses that need to change their signage frequently or for events that require temporary displays.
3. Cost-Effective: Foamex signs offer an affordable option for businesses on a budget. The material is relatively inexpensive, and the printing process is efficient, allowing for quick turnaround times without breaking the bank.
4. Customisability: Foamex signs can be easily cut into various shapes and sizes, allowing for complete customisation. Whether you need a simple rectangular sign or something more intricate, Foamex can accommodate your design needs.
5. Smooth Surface for Printing: The smooth finish of Foamex provides excellent print quality, ensuring that colours are vibrant and images are sharp. This makes it a popular choice for businesses looking to create eye-catching graphics.

Applications of Foamex Signs

Foamex signs can be utilised in a variety of settings, making them incredibly versatile:
Retail Displays: Use Foamex signs for product promotions, directional signage, or point-of-sale displays to attract and inform customers.
Event Signage: Ideal for trade shows, exhibitions, and conferences, Foamex can be used for banners, backdrops, and directional signs to guide attendees.
Office Signage: Create professional-looking signs for office environments, such as nameplates, directional signs, and informational displays.
Outdoor Advertising: Foamex signs can be used for outdoor promotions, yard signs, and real estate signage, providing a durable solution that can withstand the elements.
Art and Decor: Artists and designers are increasingly using Foamex as a canvas for their work, allowing for unique and modern displays in galleries or private collections.

Tips for Maximising Your Foamex Signs

1. Design Smart: Keep your design simple and legible. Use high-contrast colours and large fonts to ensure your message is easily readable from a distance.
2. Choose the Right Thickness: Depending on the application, select the appropriate thickness of the Foamex material. Thinner signs are more fragile and designed for small indoor displays. Thicker signs are more durable for outdoors.
3. Consider Mounting Options: Think about how and where your sign will be displayed. Foamex signs can be mounted using hooks, brackets, or even adhesive strips, depending on the surface.

Foamex signs are an excellent choice for businesses and organisations looking for a versatile, durable, and cost-effective signage solution. With their wide range of applications and customisation options, Foamex signs can effectively communicate your message and enhance your brand visibility. Whether you’re preparing for an event, promoting a product, or improving your office environment, consider incorporating Foamex signs into your signage strategy to make a lasting impression.

Colour Codes:


We will match colours as close as possible but some print processes may result in colour changes. Colours will not always print exactly as they appear on your computer monitor so please let us know if you have specific colour shades. PDF proofs cannot be accurate for colour due to the nature of different computers and their monitors.  However, all other elements such as copy and layout should be checked. All RGB and Pantone shades will be converted to CMYK by our RIP software. Please note that due to the variety of materials and printing processes use to manufacture your product(s), we cannot guarantee a full colour match, although we will endeavour to match as close as possible within the tolerances of the material. If you wish to check how your colour code prints before we process your order, please let us know and we can supply a hard copy proof.

If you select a hem and eyelet finish, our banners are printed with a welded hem free of charge. This means we fold over the banner on itself and heat weld the edges, giving it added strength. We also offer a reinforced hem at an additional cost £1.50 per linear metre. If this is selected the edges of the banners are reinforced with a thick nylon coated webbing. This will give the banners extra strength during weather conditions. It does not make them weather proof!
