Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q: What is HIPS, and how is it different from foam board?
A: HIPS stands for High-Impact Polystyrene. It's more durable and resistant to denting than standard foam board, while still being lightweight. It’s often used in professional signage because of its smooth surface and sturdiness.
Q: Can I trim the poster board to a custom shape or size?
A: Yes, we offer precision trimming to any rectangular or square dimensions. Custom die-cuts (such as rounded shapes or silhouette cuts) are also available — just let us know your specifications.
Q: Is the HIPS board suitable for outdoor use?
A: It’s moisture-resistant and can withstand short-term outdoor display. However, for prolonged exposure to weather or sunlight, we recommend laminating the print or using a weatherproof alternative.
Q: What are the most common uses for these boards?
A: HIPS boards are popular for event signage, welcome boards, retail displays, foam-mounted photos, educational boards, and directional signage at indoor events. They’re also widely used for weddings and exhibitions.
Q: What’s the lead time for printing?
A: Most standard jobs (1–20 pcs) are completed within 2–3 working days. Larger quantities or complex finishing may take slightly longer — just check with us for confirmation.
Q: Do you offer design or artwork assistance?
A: While we don’t provide design services, we’ll do a basic check to ensure your artwork is print-ready, and notify you if any adjustments are needed before printing.
