What is Foam Core?

Peel and Stick

Foam core is the generic name for mounting board made from a layer of styrofoam sandwiched between two layers of poster board-like, cardboard stock. It is available in a variety of sizes and colors. There are even self-adhesive versions with a “peel and stick” surface on one side.

Foam core mounting products are readily available at most large art- and office-supply stores. They help create a backing surface for signs that won’t bend or curl. They also help create a three-dimensional look for signage that is both clean and professional.

In this article, we’ll look at some of the ways you can use foam core to pump up your display signage.
