Trade Names: Foamed Poly Vinyl Chloride. Semi Rigid Extruded Sheet Foamed PVC is an extruded semi rigid sheet available in a range of colours. Foamed PVC has a myriad of applications in the sign, display, exhibition and building industries due to its extreme versatility and robustness.

Foamed PVC weighs approximately half as much as solid PVC, yet maintains excellent rigidity and surface smoothness. Its closed-cell structure makes it waterproof and weather resistant — ideal for both indoor and outdoor signage applications.

Fabrication & Processing

Foamed PVC is one of the easiest materials to fabricate. It can be saw cut, CNC routed, drilled, screwed, nailed, stapled, and glued. The smooth surface accepts screen printing, digital printing, vinyl wraps, and paint.

CNC routing — clean cuts, ideal for signage lettering

Saw cutting — use fine-tooth blades for clean edges

Bonding — PVC solvent cement, contact adhesive, or silicone

Printing — accepts UV-cured, solvent, and latex inks

Bending — can be heat bent at moderate temperatures

Frequently Asked Questions

Is foamed PVC waterproof?+

Yes — foamed PVC has a closed-cell structure that does not absorb water. It is completely waterproof and will not rot, swell, or delaminate in wet conditions. This makes it ideal for bathroom cladding, wet area linings, and outdoor signage.

Can foamed PVC be used outdoors?+

Yes — foamed PVC has excellent UV resistance and weather ability. White foamed PVC maintains its colour and structural integrity for many years of outdoor exposure. It is widely used for external signage, building cladding, and marine applications.

What is the difference between foamed PVC and solid PVC?+

Foamed PVC is approximately half the weight of solid PVC and easier to cut and handle. Solid PVC is denser, stronger, and more chemically resistant — it is used for industrial applications like chemical tank linings. Foamed PVC is preferred for signage, displays, and lightweight construction.
