 About Foam Core Products
Foam core board is made by adhering two sheets of paper to both sides of a foam core. Foam core board is lightweight yet sturdy and it is ideal for all indoor mounting applications. Easy to cut and customize, foam board is clay-coated for an extra smooth surface. Foam board comes in a variety of colors and is well suited to trade show applications and many other indoor uses. Foam board accepts ink jet and full color printing very well. Standard foam core board is an economical product for temporary and short-term use.
Gator foam board is a premium board and is made with a stronger based surface. Very rigid, weight bearing and flat, Gator foam board is the best choice for projects where the board is going to handled repeatedly or transported. Gator foam board can be cut with most knife systems, can be fabricated with wood working tools and is available in white or black. Gator foam is much more dent resistant and specifically, more rigid, than foam core.
