Foam COre Mounting
We offer a cost effective method of displaying images:
Foam Core Mounting.
Foam Core, also known as Foam Board, is a light weight & sturdy material used for the mounting of photographic prints & similar graphic art items.
You often see these on easels at trade shows, used as signs, promoting products & providing directions.
Foam Board made up of three layers. The inner layer is made of polystyrene foam, with the two outer layers made of black or white acid-free paper.
Mounting to a substrate provides a flat, smooth & rigid surface. After the image is mounted onto the Foam Core Board, the board is then trimmed so the artwork is inset or flush to the edge of the board & so that the edges are even on all sides.
Stick a Pin in it !
​
Foam Core is the perfect material for Map Pins, Tacks, Marker Flags, etc. It is rigid, yet light weight.
For a more finished appearance, a Frame can be added too!
In addition to displaying on an easel, we also offer Adhesive Picture Hangers (Zig-Zag Hangers) made of high-density plastic & a pressure sensitive foam-backed adhesive on one side.
The foam-backed adhesive grips the smooth surface of Foam Board tenaciously. Adhesive Hangers are also used to hang other types of light weight artwork, photos, matted prints, posters, etc.
​
If your ultimate goal is to Frame your image, Foam Core Mounting is an excellent choice, as it is one of the 1st steps used in Framing.
