This board is very light, very stiff and very flat.  It has a white, rigid polystyrene foam centre, with smooth white paper laminated onto both faces.

It is easy to cut with a knife, a mount cutter or on a wall cutter.  It is a highly versatile product,  used for a whole range of projects:

• shadow box frames; part cutting, creasing, folding, taping and gluing foam core board allows you to make up trays for framing 3D objects. 
• Deep bevel Mounts: cut bevel edge on your mount cutter and decorate with paints or papers.
• Backing board: it will not warp, and it makes the picture lighter, which some people prefer. 
• Dry mounting: you will not get the orange peel effect common to most pulp based boards. cut the mount larger than required then trim.
• Fabric framing: useful support across which you can lace, tape or pin your work.  You can also use to create a "through fit" support.
• Spacing in shadow mounts
