Expanded PVC Sheets for Lightweight Fabrication

Expanded PVC plastic is a foamed polyvinyl chloride (PVC) sheet whose extraordinary combination of features makes it ideal for signage, exhibits, store displays, POP, kiosks, screen printing and more. The surface is a smooth, matte finish that makes it ideal to paint or laminate, compared to the glossy finish of acrylic sheeting and polycarbonate sheeting. Expanded PVC sheets also have good screw and staple retention, which makes them ideal for stage prop design, cabinetry, and other wood replacement projects. Expanded PVC plastic sheets are tough, high-strength and lightweight, and can be ordered in a wide range of sizes, thicknesses, and colors. Expanded PVC sheets are free of lead, cadmium, barium, zinc and have passed all three UL 1975 requirements. It is recommended for industrial and commercial signage. It readily accepts virtually any form of graphic overlay (print, paint, and photo mounting). It is also easy to cut and shape, making it a strong choice for three-dimensional exhibits, displays, and stage sets.
