Poster vs Foamex Board
At A1 (594 × 841mm), a paper poster costs £32.50 and a Foamex board £38.50 inc VAT.
A paper poster is the low-cost choice for windows, notice boards and frames such as A-boards and poster holders. A Foamex board is rigid, so it can be fixed to a wall or stand in a display, and suits indoor signs and shorter-term outdoor use.

Which Should You Choose?
Choose a Paper Poster If
- It is going in a window, on a notice board or into a frame.
- You want to change it often: an A-board or poster holder takes a new poster in seconds.
- It is for indoor use.
Choose a Foamex Board If
- It needs to be rigid: a board can be fixed to a wall or stand in a display on its own.
- It is going outside for a short time.
- You want a thicker panel: Foamex comes in 3mm, 5mm, 10mm and 19mm.

We recently used Liberty Signs after having new cladding to our business premises. We were very impressed with the service, from the initial contact to the final installation. The team was efficient, professional, and helpful throughout the process, making everything straightforward from start to finish. The quality of the signage was excellent, delivered on time, and exactly what we wanted. We'd happily recommend them to anyone looking for great service and high-quality signage.
Will at Liberty signs have wrapped all of our vehicles over the past 7 years or so and each time I’m blown away with the quality. The team work to tight turnaround times and always deliver. Nothing is ever to much even when I’ve had adjustments made to the sign wrapping further down the line. I would 100% reccomend Liberty signs.
