Foamex printing in London

Light, rigid and razor sharp. We print foamex boards straight onto the sheet on our Fuji UV flatbed, then cut them to any size or shape on our Zund. From a single A4 sign to a full run of exhibition panels, it all happens under one roof in Uxbridge.

Printed 3mm, 5mm and 10mm Foamex boards stacked to show their thickness

What we print on foamex

  • Indoor signs, menus and wayfinding
  • Shell scheme panels and exhibition graphics
  • Wedding seating plans and welcome signs
  • Cut to shape letters, logos and giant photo op backdrops
  • Point of sale and retail displays

Printed direct, cut to any shape

Your artwork is UV printed direct onto the board on our Fuji flatbed, so colours stay bold and the edges stay crisp. Our Zund digital cutter then cuts every board to size, or contour cuts it around your design, from simple rectangles to intricate shapes.

Thickness and finishing

Choose 3mm for light signs and posters, 5mm for everyday displays and shell scheme panels, or 10mm for extra rigid boards that stand up on their own. Add a matt, gloss, dry wipe or anti graffiti laminate, and we can drill 2 or 4 holes ready for hanging.

Indoor or outdoor?

Foamex is at its best indoors and for short term outdoor use. For signs that need to face the weather for years, we recommend ACM Dibond, and for cheap temporary outdoor signs, Correx.

Questions

Foamex Printing FAQs

Which foamex thickness should I choose?

3mm suits light signs and posters, 5mm is the all rounder for displays and shell scheme panels, and 10mm is extra rigid for freestanding boards and large panels. Tell us where it is going and we will recommend one.

Can you cut foamex to a shape?

Yes. Every board is cut on our Zund digital cutter, so we can cut circles, arches, letters, logos and full contour cut shapes around your artwork.

Can foamex go outside?

Foamex is fine outdoors for short term use such as events. For long term outdoor signs we recommend ACM Dibond, which will not warp or fade.

What is the difference between foamex, Correx and ACM?

Foamex is a smooth, rigid foam board that is ideal indoors. Correx is a light, waterproof fluted plastic for cheap temporary outdoor signs. ACM is an aluminium composite panel for premium, long lasting outdoor signs.

Can I buy plain foamex sheets?

Yes. You can buy foamex sheets from us to print or use yourself, and collect them from Uxbridge.
