What are Mounted Posters?
Mounted posters are poster prints made from a rigid material as opposed to a paper-based material, providing additional durability. They are perfect for propping up against a wall, resting on a display easel, or even hanging on a wall. Mounted posters can be created using two different materials; 5mm foam board or 3mm PVC plastic. The 5mm foam board is the more economic choice and provides a lightweight, vivid display. The 3mm PVC plastic is more durable and allows you to use your mounted poster in indoor or outdoor scenarios.
Mounted posters can be used as visual aids, business advertisements and promotions, directional or informative signage and more!

Which Mounted Poster Type Is Best for You?
Foam Board
Foam board mounted posters are designed to be both rigid and lightweight. Mounted poster prints on foam board have a paper face, providing a smooth printed finish for your poster. Foam board mounted posters are best used indoors.
Get StartedPVC (Plastic)
PVC (or plastic) mounted posters are a little heavier per square inch than foam board. With PVC your mounted poster will withstand even outdoor elements as the poster is directly printed onto the plastic surface. Although not as smooth as the foam board paper face, our high quality UV print process still provides excellent detail.

Display & Care
Displaying or hanging your mounted poster is easy and can be done in seconds. The easiest way to display a foam board or PVC mounted poster is to prop it up in a window or against a wall. You can also set them on shelves. For your convenience we offer two different styles of easels—one larger telescoping easel which can be used on the floor or on a table and an easel back option for smaller mounted posters (up to 24”x25”). If you want to hang your mounted poster on a wall there are multiple ways, but we recommend using 3M Command Strips (available for purchase with your order).
Mounted posters are easy to maintain and clean. For foam board mounted posters, gently wipe away dust and debris with a dry, non-abrasive cloth. PVC mounted posters can be gently washed with a damp cloth. If you have selected to have your mounted poster coated with a protective laminate, we recommend using a cloth with a small amount of citrus based cleaner or Dry Erase cleaner.

Questions and Answers
Our mounted posters are digitally printed with long-lasting and vibrant UV inks, directly onto your choice of foam board or PVC plastic (sintra). The result is a more rigid and durable poster than our standard posters, which are produced by photo printing onto archival paper. Furthermore, our mounted posters can be displayed by propping up against an easel and those printed on PVC can even be utilized in outdoor environments.
At their most basic, posters are relatively large, eye-catching prints that combine text and graphics. Posters are typically printed on a paper substrate, although you’ll also find them printed on other materials as well. Since their beginnings in the 1500s, posters have often been used to announce important news, promote events, advertise products, or simply serve as artwork in and of themselves.
As noted above, our mounted posters are digitally printed with UV inks, directly onto your choice of 5mm foam board or 3mm PVC plastic (sintra).
We do offer a protective laminate on our mounted posters; this laminate has a glossy finish and it serves to protect your finished sign against scratches and other abuse. Not only does the protective laminate provide an enhanced appearance and added durability, but it also allows you to write on the poster with dry-erase markers if you wish to do so.
In their natural, unlaminated/uncoated state, our mounted posters will have more of a satin look to them – that’s simply a result of printing directly with UV ink onto the foam board or plastic/sintra. As noted above, however, you have the option of adding a protective laminate that will produce a glossy finish. The glossy finish will be brighter and more reflective than the natural matte appearance, and it will work especially well under low-light conditions.
You can order mounted posters in sizes ranging from as small as 4"x4" all the way up to 94” x 46.”
The most common sizes are: 8"x10", 11"x17", 16"x20", 18"x24”, 24"x36," and 36"x48.” But if you’re seeking an “uncommon” size, we can help you there, too – we can print our mounted posters in sizes as small as 4”x4” and as large as 94”x46”.
Mounted posters printed onto foam board are 5mm thick (about 3/16-inch), while our mounted posters printed onto PVC plastic are 3mm thick (about 1/8-inch).
Yes, you can indeed print both sides of your mounted poster, no matter which material you choose. While double-sided printing adds an extra cost, this option can be worthy of the additional investment, especially if you’re going to display the poster so that both sides of the poster can be viewed. And, keep in mind that you can have completely different messages printed on each side of your poster.
We do not offer custom shapes on our mounted posters at this time, but if you’re in need of a custom shape, check out our Foarm Board Signs or Plastic Signs.
