Foamex Signs Ireland - Rigid PVC Display Boards

Foamex signs are high-quality printed signs made from rigid PVC foam board with a smooth, solid surface.

Unlike corriboard, foamex has a dense core and smooth finish on both sides, allowing for sharper print quality and a more premium appearance. This makes it a popular choice when presentation matters.

PrintReady.ie produces foamex signs in full colour using UV direct print across six standard sizes, suitable for a wide range of indoor and sheltered display applications.

Ideal for Professional Indoor Signage

Foamex signs are commonly used where a cleaner, more polished finish is required.

  • Retail point-of-sale displays and window graphics
  • Estate agent interior and property display boards
  • Exhibition and trade show panels
  • Office reception and meeting room signage
  • Restaurant, café, and hotel branding
  • Promotional and product information boards

Foamex is widely chosen when signage needs to look professional at close range and represent a brand clearly.

Smooth, Rigid and Lightweight

Foamex is a solid PVC foam board with a smooth surface that produces sharp, vibrant print results.

  • Clean, flat surface for high-quality printing
  • Rigid structure with minimal flex
  • Lightweight and easy to handle
  • Suitable for wall mounting and display use
  • Can be cut, drilled, or shaped for custom installations

It is heavier and more solid than corriboard, giving a more permanent and premium feel.

UV Direct Print Finish

All foamex signs are printed using UV direct print.

This process applies ink directly to the board surface, creating:

  • Accurate colour reproduction
  • Sharp detail and text clarity
  • Durable, moisture-resistant finish
  • Full-colour photographic print capability

Foamex is particularly effective for designs with fine detail, branding, or close-up viewing.

Standard Sizes Available

Foamex signs are available in six sizes:

  • 400 x 600mm
  • 600 x 800mm
  • 800 x 1200mm
  • 600 x 1200mm
  • 1200 x 1200mm
  • 1200 x 2400mm

Single units are available with no minimum order required.

Indoor and Sheltered Use

Foamex is primarily used indoors but can also be used in sheltered outdoor areas for short to medium-term applications.

For long-term outdoor signage, more weather-resistant materials such as corriboard or aluminium composite may be more suitable.

The smooth solid face of foamex takes ink more cleanly than the slightly textured surface of corriboard. Fine detail, small text, and photography reproduce more sharply on foamex, which matters for signage viewed at close range.
The minimum order is a single sign. There is no requirement to order in multiples.
Six sizes are available: 400x600mm, 600x800mm, 800x1200mm, 600x1200mm, 1200x1200mm, and 1200x2400mm. Single units are available for all sizes with no minimum order requirement.
UV direct print. Ink is applied directly to the smooth foamex surface using UV-cured inks that bond to the board and resist moisture and handling under normal indoor conditions.
Foamex is a rigid solid PVC foam board with smooth faces on both sides. Corriboard is a hollow twin-wall fluted plastic. Foamex has a cleaner print surface, a more premium feel, and is better suited to indoor display and close-range viewing. Corriboard is lighter, cheaper, and better suited to temporary outdoor use.
Supply a print-ready PDF in CMYK colour mode with a minimum of 3mm bleed on all sides at the correct finished dimensions. Keep text and logos at least 5mm inside the finished edge. Minimum 100dpi at the finished print size.
Retail point-of-sale displays, estate agent interior boards, exhibition panels, office and reception signage, restaurant and café interior branding, and trade show display are common uses. Any indoor environment where a clean, professional sign finish is needed at a practical price point is a suitable application.
Lead times are confirmed at order stage and run from receipt of print-ready artwork. Standard turnaround for foamex signs is typically three to five working days, subject to current production schedules.
Aluminium composite, sometimes called Dibond, is heavier, more rigid, and better suited to permanent outdoor installation. Foamex is lighter, easier to handle and mount, and more cost-effective for indoor and semi-permanent display. For short-term and interior applications, foamex gives a comparable visual result at lower cost.
Foamex can be mounted with double-sided adhesive tape, adhesive pads, or screwed directly through the board into the wall. Stand-off fixings, bolts with spacers that hold the sign slightly proud of the wall, are a popular option for reception and office displays. The solid construction accepts fixings cleanly without the crushing that affects hollow corriboard.
The standard product is supplied in the six rectangular sizes listed. Foamex cuts cleanly with a sharp knife or saw, so custom shapes are possible. Contact PrintReady.ie directly before ordering if a non-rectangular format is needed.
Foamex handles sheltered outdoor use reasonably well in the short to medium term. For long-term outdoor display in direct weather exposure, corriboard or aluminium composite are more appropriate. Foamex is primarily an indoor sign material.
