If you have been wondering what Foamex is all about, you are not alone.  The name has been cropping up when mention of advertising alternatives come up.  The short of it is that Foamex is a foam board that features a high quality smooth finish.  Let’s dig further into this printing phenomenon and see why businesses use it as a preferred way to get their message out.

Foamex refers to the plastic board fitted with self-adhesive vinyl.  It is the perfect product for your long term internal marketing needs and point of sale materials.  In addition, while suitable for long term indoor use, Foamex printing is quite durable and is a viable option for outdoor use.

Advantages of Foamex Printing

There are some important advantages to Foamex sign printing.  Let’s look at why this versatile signage has become so popular.

Easily Acquires Any Shape

Foamex has flexible attributes and can easily bend to whatever shape.  In other words, if you require signage that is creative and in need of acquiring a unique shape, Foamex can accommodate your bespoke design.

Cost-Effective

Marketing budgets are quite firm and in some cases very limited.  There is little to no wiggle room for overspending.  The pricing of your marketing boards shouldn’t overwhelm your budget.  Some other popular boards used for marketing such as Dibond, MDF, wood and others can be very expensive.  Foamex board is the cheaper option without sacrificing quality.  In addition, they can last for three to five years indoors.  Therefore, they are an affordable and cost-effective material to utilise for your internal advertising.

Easily Mountable

Installing Foamex sign boards is simple and free of any hassle.  Whether you are drilling holes, fixing to walks, utilising poles or Velcro, your board will easily accommodate.  Therefore, there is no need for additional specific tooling to mount your sign.

Foamex Can Be Easily Cut

Customers are opting for the unique size and shape of Foamex board printing to get noticed and to suit their budget.  It is a versatile material that can be transformed easily into almost any shape or size.  Therefore, it is the smart choice for businesses that want a unique look to their boards.  Their versatility adds to their cost-effectiveness.

Lighter Than Other Boards

One of the reasons Foamex is so popular is the light weight.  Therefore, it is quite easy to transport and mount your sign.  You can easily take down and reinstall no matter your location.  This makes it so popular with travelling meal trucks or carts.  If you are a vendor selling items or assigning seating at a conference, you can transport your sign with little fuss to wherever you next destination is.

High Quality

Last but definitely not least, Foamex is top notch in terms of quality.  Distinguishable features include being fade-resistant and providing full colour print.
