Frequently Asked Questions
Can these foam PVC sheets be used outdoors?
The sheets are suitable for indoor and some short to medium-term sheltered outdoor use. For fully exposed, long-term external installations, additional consideration should be given to UV exposure and weathering, and protective overlaminates or coatings may be advisable.
How can I cut and shape the foam PVC orange sheets?
The sheets can be cut and fabricated using standard tools such as fine-toothed saws, routers and utility knives for thinner gauges. They can be drilled, routed and edge-finished in a similar way to other rigid plastics, taking normal care to avoid overheating.
Are these sheets suitable for all types of digital printing?
The smooth surface is compatible with most common wide-format digital printing processes used for rigid substrates, including UV-cured inks. Always check printer and ink manufacturer guidance for optimal settings and undertake a test print to confirm adhesion and finish.
