Description
This is pre-cut green expanded PVC Foam. PVC foam sheets are ideal for digital or screen printing, signage, fabricating, prototyping and much more. Popular manufacturers of PVC foam sheets include Vycom, Kommerling and Sintra.
What is Expanded PVC Foam?
PVC foam is a lightweight, low density, non-toxic plastic. It has a closed cell expanded core which enables a smooth edge and reduces moisture absorption.
Often used for signage and screen/digital printing, PVC foam has almost unlimited uses in a makerspace or lab. PVC foam has full color thickness, making it ideal for model making, prototyping and much more.
PVC foam's weather, UV and impact resistant properties makes these panels excellent options for durable exterior, or interior, signs, letters or displays.
For bonding PVC sheets together, or to another PVC material, we recommend a solvent based adhesive. To bond to other substrates, use an epoxy, rubber-based or urethane adhesive.
PVC foam sheets are NOT the same as foam core boards. Foam board or foam core sheets have a polystyrene core with a paper backing on both sides. PVC expanded foam sheets are expanded polyvinyl chloride sheets.
PVC Expanded Foam sheets are not masked and should not be laser cut.
