Question
What's the difference between 3/16 foam board and 56pt counter cards?
Answer
They are different products for different jobs. A 3/16 inch foam board is a lightweight rigid display board with a foam center, while a 56pt counter card is a thick, heavy paperboard piece meant to stand on a counter or tabletop.
| 3/16" Foam Board | 56pt Counter Card | |
|---|---|---|
| Build | Rigid board with foam center | Thick heavy paperboard |
| Use | Signs, presentations, mounted prints | Countertop and point-of-sale display |
| Sizes | 16" x 20" up to 40" x 60", plus custom | 8.5" x 11", 9" x 12", 11" x 17" |
Choose foam board for larger displays and counter cards for a sturdy point-of-sale piece. Available sizes vary by printer, so confirm current options before you order.
