Material Characteristics
Foamcore, or foam board, is a lightweight, rigid material commonly used in various applications. It comprises a foam core sandwiched between thin, smooth paper or plastic surfaces.
Foamcore is valued for its versatility, durability, and ease of use. It is often used in graphic design, signage, displays, mounting artwork, and crafting projects. The smooth surfaces make it suitable for direct printing, painting, or mounting printed materials. It can be easily cut, shaped, and glued, allowing customized designs and creative applications.
Due to its lightweight nature, foamcore is particularly suitable for indoor use and temporary installations. It provides a sturdy backing for artwork or displays without adding significant weight. However, it is less ideal for outdoor use as it may not withstand exposure to harsh weather conditions.
