We have A1 sheets of 5mm & 3mm thickness, and A2 sheets of 5mm all in white.

Foam board has a smooth crisp white finish and is great for displays and mounting work. We also sell it for wedding table plans as it stays straight on an easel and is light as a feather!

Find it in our shop upstairs with the mount board.
