The white and black polystyrene sheets that we have on offer do not have any protective film. Because PS has a static charge that attracts a lot of dust, it can be that small sheets (custom cuts) may be slightly scratched upon delivery. This is especially noticeable in the case of the dark sheets. The term “impact resistant” when applied to polystyrene only means that the type we offer is more resistant to impact than the simpler polystyrene used for packing purposes. Because polystyrene is so easy to work with, it is the perfect model making material. With this in mind, a large amount of semi-finished products are made from PS and offered for sale: strips, profiles, textured sheets, tubes. All of these semi-finished products lend themselves marvellously to cutting and gluing.Polystyrene sheets are often employed as an overlay on the tops of work tables. It is advisable not to glue down the entire surface of the sheet so that it can be replaced more easily when necessary. It is also a good idea to use at least a 1.5 mm thick sheet in such cases because the heat emanating from a worklamp hovering close over the surface will cause a thinner sheet to bubble up and bulge. Polystyrene should not be employed in the outdoors because it is not UV resistant: it will become brittle and bleach out. For jobs requiring better weathering properties we recommend FOREX. Because it accepts printing so well, white and coloured polystyrene are very often used in making business cards, signs and displays. Smart-X is a lightweight foam panel with a thick, rigid expanded foam polystyrene core and extremely hard outer layer surfaces made of lightly grained solid polystyrene (integral foam). The panel conforms to the European Union norms regarding the restriction of hazardous substance content (RoHS). Its very good weathering properties predestined it for outdoor use where it is capable of lasting for up to two years. Its white surface guarantees a perfect substrate for “direct to substrate” printing. It can also be processed by means of coverings, laminating, sawing, milling, painting or gluing. It is therefore primarily used for making signs (e.g. construction signs), billboards and advertising panels. These panels are also often used for trade fair constructions as well.
