Available in two thicknesses (3/16″ and 1/2″) and customizable shapes, foam board can be printed on one or both sides.

Foam board, available in white with optional textured finishes, is ideal for enhancing storefront windows, tables, and personal displays in your home or office. Our custom foam board posters provide a stylish way to showcase your artwork while remaining budget-friendly.
