Note About White Foam Core Edges
Navy blue foam board has navy blue facers on a white foam core, so white edges will be visible when cut. This is standard construction for all colored foam boards and allows for the vibrant surface colors while keeping the board lightweight and affordable. For applications requiring all-blue edges throughout, black foam board with black core eliminates visible white edges when cut.

The sophisticated navy color conveys trust and authority.

This is standard construction for all colored foam boards and allows for vibrant surface colors while keeping the board lightweight and affordable. If visible white edges are a concern for your application, consider planning your design to minimize exposed cut edges.
Can I print on navy blue foam board?
Navy blue foam board is designed as a colored background substrate rather than a printable surface. For best results, mount printed graphics, letters, photos, and materials onto the navy blue surface using spray adhesive, glue, or double-sided tape. The navy blue provides an excellent backdrop for white, silver, gold, and light-colored materials that need to stand out with strong contrast.
What colors work best on navy blue foam board?
Light colors work best on navy blue foam board for maximum contrast and readability. White, silver, gold, light yellow, light blue, and cream all pop beautifully against navy blue backgrounds. Avoid dark colors like black, dark brown, or dark green which won't provide enough contrast. Metallic materials like silver and gold foil create particularly striking effects on navy blue.
