Vaahtomuovilevyjä

Vaahtomuovilevyjä, also known as foam board or foam core board, are rigid yet lightweight sheet materials commonly used in display, mounting, and crafting applications. They consist of a foam core sandwiched between two facings, typically made of paper or plastic. The foam core is usually composed of polystyrene or polyurethane.

The primary advantage of vaahtomuovilevyjä is their excellent rigidity relative to their weight, making them ideal for large format presentations or displays that need to stand on their own. The paper facings provide a smooth surface for printing, mounting photographs, or applying graphics. Plastic facings offer increased durability and moisture resistance.

Vaahtomuovilevyjä are available in various thicknesses, ranging from a few millimeters to several centimeters, and in standard sheet sizes. They are easily cut with a sharp knife or a cutting machine, allowing for precise shapes and intricate designs. This makes them a popular choice for model making, architectural mock-ups, and custom framing.

In the printing industry, vaahtomuovilevyjä are often used for point-of-purchase displays, trade show graphics, and signage. Their ability to accept direct printing or to serve as a substrate for adhesive-backed graphics makes them versatile for various visual communication needs. They are also employed in the art world for mounting artwork and creating three-dimensional pieces. Due to their lightweight nature, they are relatively easy to transport and install.
