Description
Cork Foam Board features a white extruded polystyrene foam core with natural cork material laminated on one side, creating a lightweight, portable bulletin board alternative that accepts pins, tacks, and pushpins while weighing significantly less than traditional cork boards. This innovative foam board combines the familiar pinnable cork surface trusted for bulletin boards and notice displays with the lightweight rigidity and easy handling of foam core construction — perfect for portable displays, temporary bulletin boards, trade show information boards, and any application where a pinnable surface is needed without the weight and bulk of solid cork or wood-backed boards.
Available in 3/8" thickness in 16" × 20", 20" × 30", and 24" × 36" sheets. The natural cork surface provides authentic cork texture, color, and grain — accepting standard pins, thumbtacks, and pushpins for posting notices, photos, documents, and displays. The opposite side features white paper facer that can be used for mounting graphics or as a clean display surface. The lightweight foam core construction makes it easy to transport, hang, and reposition without requiring heavy-duty mounting hardware. Perfect for offices, classrooms, trade shows, and home use where traditional heavy cork boards are impractical.
Perfect for office bulletin boards and notice displays, classroom teacher resource boards, trade show and conference information displays, home office organization boards, craft room and hobby space displays, real estate open house information boards, event and wedding seating chart displays, portable notice boards for temporary locations, dormitory and apartment pinboards, and photography or artwork display boards where a natural, textured aesthetic is desired.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I pin things to cork foam board like a regular bulletin board?
Yes! Cork foam board has natural cork material on both sides that accepts standard pins, thumbtacks, and pushpins just like traditional cork boards. The cork surface holds pins securely for posting notices, photos, documents, memos, and displays. The main difference is the lightweight foam core construction makes it much easier to transport and hang compared to heavy traditional cork boards.
How is cork foam board different from regular cork board?
Cork foam board has natural cork surfaces laminated to a lightweight polystyrene foam core, making it significantly lighter than traditional solid cork or wood-backed cork boards. This makes cork foam board much easier to transport, hang, and reposition without heavy-duty mounting hardware. Both accept pins and tacks equally well — the key advantage is portability and lighter weight while maintaining authentic cork functionality and appearance.
What can I use cork foam board for?
Cork foam board works excellently for office bulletin boards, classroom teacher resource displays, trade show information boards, home office organization, craft room displays, real estate open house information boards, event seating charts, portable notice boards, dormitory pinboards, and anywhere you need a lightweight pinnable surface. It's particularly useful for temporary installations, trade shows, and situations where traditional heavy cork boards are impractical to transport or mount.
Can I hang cork foam board easily?
Yes! Because cork foam board is much lighter than traditional cork boards, it's easy to hang using standard picture hanging strips, lightweight mounting hardware, or even double-sided mounting tape for temporary installations. You don't need heavy-duty wall anchors or mounting systems required for solid cork boards. This makes it perfect for apartments, dormitories, temporary offices, and trade show displays where heavy mounting isn't practical or allowed.
