A1 Foamex Board Printing

Putting up A1 Foamex Boards takes very little kit. Holes can come ready made: choose all corners or top corners under Drilling when you order. Then screws with washers for a wall, tightened gently. If the wall is smooth and indoors, double-sided foam tape or sticky pads avoid drilling altogether.

Of course. Anyone can order, with no trade account and no minimum beyond one. Prices for A1 Foamex Boards begin at £52.80, checkout works without an account and you pay by card. Parents, clubs, churches and small shops order single items all the time. On its own the opening price of £52.80 would add £7.95 for mainland delivery; reach £100 of goods and that goes to zero.

No surprises: what the page shows for these signs is the goods figure you pay at checkout. Delivery is the one extra, £7.95 to a UK mainland address, and it drops away when the goods reach £100 after discounts. Paid artwork help shows up as its own basket line, so you can check each amount before paying. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each sign is made to order for you.

Anything from 1 to 1000. The quantity choices on the page run 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8, and upwards. The figure shown is for the whole batch, not for one, so divide it by the number you picked to see the cost of each. If you need more than 1000, send the size, number and date through our Get a quote page. Before delivery, these signs cost from £52.80.

Yes, anywhere in the UK, though the price differs by area. A Highlands postcode on the mainland pays the usual rate plus a single £10 for the order, and that £10 still applies when the rest of the delivery is free. Northern Ireland gets a price worked out first, as do the Isle of Wight, the Channel Islands, Scilly, the Scottish islands and the Isle of Man: send your postcode through our Get a quote page or the Contact page. We cannot send anything outside the UK. Before delivery, these signs cost from £52.80.

Yes. Choose Express and A1 Foamex Boards can be on the way in 5 working days on the opening option, for £70.41, where Saver is £52.80 and takes 8 days. Then give the courier one to three working days, and send the artwork with the order, because the clock does not run until the file is sorted. If the date is really tight, message us on the Contact page before paying and we will tell you honestly.

Easiest route: they send the finished file to whoever placed the order, and it gets uploaded after ordering. Up to 3 files of 25 MB each are fine. They can also reach us through the Contact page, as long as they quote your order number so it lands on the right job. Production waits for the checked file, so a late file means a later dispatch date. For reference, these signs measure A1 (594 × 841 mm).

That is why a person looks at every upload before anything is printed. Typical snags are a document at the wrong size, missing bleed, blurry photos and words sitting too near the trim. If we spot one, we explain what to change and you send a fresh file. Or hand it over to us: for £15 our typesetting places your wording and logo on a neat layout, with one first draft and two rounds of changes. For reference, these signs measure A1 (594 × 841 mm).

Close-up items need about 300 dpi at full size. So an A1 (594 × 841 mm) layout wants about 7,016 by 9,933 pixels. Keep lettering and logos as vectors if you can. An image copied off a web page or a social post rarely has enough pixels; if yours looks likely to print soft, our file check flags it.

Yes, a real person on our team opens every uploaded file and checks the size, the bleed and the resolution. If something is off, you hear from us before anything is made. Designs made in the online designer are printed exactly as they looked on screen. We print what you send, though, so read the spelling, numbers and dates yourself as well. Making starts when the order and the file are both confirmed. Make the artwork for these signs the same size as the one you order, such as A1 (594 × 841 mm).

Word, PowerPoint and Canva are a fair place to start, but export a high quality PDF from them before uploading. Our first choice is always a PDF at the ordered size with fonts embedded or outlined, followed by AI, EPS or SVG, then high resolution JPG, PNG or TIFF. You can add three files, each up to 25 MB, on this page, or upload them after ordering from the email we send. For reference, these signs measure A1 (594 × 841 mm).

Two ways. Buy the file on its own: finish your design and pay £9.99 for the print-ready PDF, though you give up the right to cancel as soon as you start downloading it. Or order printing, and a full resolution PDF of the design travels with the order, waiting for you in your confirmation email and under My Account once you have paid. Make the artwork for these signs the same size as the one you order, such as A1 (594 × 841 mm).

The lamination option has 3 settings: matt (One Side), none or gloss (One Side). A laminate is a very thin clear layer sealed over the print. Gloss gives richer, punchier colour; matt takes the shine away so photos and text are easier to read under lights; soft touch feels smooth, almost like velvet. Whichever you pick, the surface copes better with scuffs. Switch between them on the page and the total updates straight away, so you can see what each one adds. For these signs, the material can be 5mm Foamex or 3mm Foamex.

They can: switch Sides Printed to double sided for A1 Foamex Boards. Two-way printing makes sense for boards seen coming and going, such as one hanging on a fence beside a lane, or pushed into a lawn on a stake. Send two pages, front then back, and tell us if the back is simply a copy of the front.

It depends on size and handling. A small notice screwed to an office or classroom wall is fine in 3mm, the lightest option. A bigger board, one on a post, or anything passed around at a meeting is better in 5mm, which flexes less. The Foamex options for A1 Foamex Boards are 3mm or 5mm.

The sides printed option has 2 settings: double Sided or single Sided. One side means the design appears on the front only. Two sides puts print on both faces, handy when people approach from either direction, for example a flag on a pole or a sign that faces two ways. Switch between them on the page and the total updates straight away, so you can see what each one adds. For these signs, the material can be 5mm Foamex or 3mm Foamex.

It is what your design gets printed onto. For A1 Foamex Boards the list runs 5mm Foamex or 3mm Foamex. Try each one on the page: the figure changes as you click, so the cost of every choice is clear.

A profile cut follows the edge of your artwork, so the board ends up shaped like your design rather than a plain oblong. Put a cut line in your file, or tell us and we will add one. For A1 Foamex Boards the list runs yes or no. Try each one on the page: the figure changes as you click, so the cost of every choice is clear.

They work on site hoardings and cabins. Whoever puts them up should tie off every fixing point firmly and check again once the wind has been blowing. For these signs, the material can be 5mm Foamex or 3mm Foamex. Different products can share one basket, and delivery is free once the goods reach £100.

A school corridor, a shop floor or a club house rarely needs just one notice. Two that often go up beside this one: A1 Dibond Signs and A2 Foamex Boards. Keep every sign in one board type so the set matches, look up sizes and prices on each page, then check out once: one delivery charge for the whole basket, free over £100 of goods. For these signs, the material can be 5mm Foamex or 3mm Foamex.

A1 Foamex Boards can do it, if you match the board to how long the sign stays up. Foamex is better kept for inside the shed or the club room. Ask for holes drilled in all corners or top corners and the board arrives ready for cable ties or screws.

A cafe, salon, market stall or corner shop can put these signs to good use out front. Fixed to the fascia or wall with screws, a printed board makes a tidy shop sign. For scale, A1 (594 × 841 mm) is £52.80. Large or lit signs may need advertisement consent from the council, and your landlord may have a say. For these signs, the material can be 5mm Foamex or 3mm Foamex.

Yes. Tie them to railings, a fence or a gazebo, or stand them on an easel. If you are outside and the wind picks up, check the fixings again during the day. Leave time for making and delivery before the date of the fair. For these signs, the material can be 5mm Foamex or 3mm Foamex.

With drilling, the corners arrive with holes already made, so the board can go straight up with screws or cable ties and you never need to get the drill out. For A1 Foamex Boards the list runs top corners, no or all corners. Try each one on the page: the figure changes as you click, so the cost of every choice is clear.

FatPrint does, from start to finish. We take your order and payment, a person on our team checks your file, and A1 Foamex Boards are made to order for you rather than taken off a shelf. It then goes to you by courier, with tracking sent by email. Questions before or after ordering go through the box on this page or the Contact page, and a person replies.

If they arrive faulty, damaged or not what you ordered, yes: under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 we reprint or refund. A change of mind is different. Each order is made to your specification, and reg. 28(1)(b) of the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 takes those goods out of the 14-day right to cancel. Before production starts, though, you can cancel for all your money back. For reference, these signs measure A1 (594 × 841 mm).

Yes. Fill in our Get a quote page, giving the size, how many, the material, when you need them and the delivery postcode, and attach your artwork if it is ready. A price comes back to you by email. Get a quote is also how delivery to Northern Ireland and the islands gets priced. For reference, these signs measure A1 (594 × 841 mm).

Take photos of the damage and the box it came in, then send them through the contact form within 48 hours of delivery, with your order number. Hold on to the item rather than posting it back; we reply and arrange a reprint or refund. This sits alongside your legal rights, which the returns page covers. Choose Saver and these signs leave us after 8 working days; Express brings that down to 5.

Five things: placeholder wording still sitting in the layout, lettering smaller than will print clearly, anything creeping past the safe area or right up to the trim, logos or photos with too few pixels for the size, and shapes lying on top of words. A serious issue has to be sorted before you finish, while a plain warning can be accepted if you are happy with it. Your spelling is not read, so go over names, numbers and dates yourself. Make the artwork for these signs the same size as the one you order, such as A1 (594 × 841 mm).
