Board materials compared for temporary and long-term outdoor signage.

5 min read · Updated July 2026

Quick comparison

  • Correx (corrugated plastic) — lightweight, cost-effective, great for shorter outdoor campaigns and estate boards.
  • Foamex / foam PVC — smoother face, good indoor/outdoor display boards.
  • ABS — tougher rigid plastic for more premium, longer-life signage.

Choose based on lifespan, mounting and weather. Full signage overview: signage guide.
