Our first “I want it now… but what the F is it?” video 🎬 (and yes… it’s a bit scrappy)
We’ve finally done it. We’ve launched a weekly series where we explain our products in plain English, so you can order the right thing first time… without needing a PhD in Print.
And Episode 1 is officially live.
It’s not slick. It’s not cinematic. There are no dramatic close-ups or fancy transitions.
But it is real, useful, and (most importantly) it’s Big G stepping in front of the camera for the first time.
So please… play nice 😅
Meet the series: “I want it now… but what the F is it?”
Every week, we’re picking one product and breaking it down:
What it is
Who it’s actually for
What you should choose (and what you should avoid)
How to get it fast (because… Rapid Print Pro)
The goal is simple: less confusion, fewer wrong orders, better results on your event / shop / office wall / whatever chaos you’re dealing with.
Episode 1: Display Boards (no waffle, no faff)
For our first episode, we went with a proper classic: display boards.
They’re one of those products everyone needs at some point, but half the time people are forced to guess the material and hope for the best.
So G breaks down the three main options we print:
✅ 5mm Foamboard
Lightweight, clean, and ideal for indoor use when you want something smart without it weighing a ton.
✅ 10mm Foamex
Chunkier, tougher, and great when you need something more rigid and hard-wearing (think more “serious signage energy”).
✅ 5mm Solid Core
Premium feel, sturdy, and a great choice when you want a cleaner, more durable board that holds up well.
Basically: if your artwork needs to stand up straight and behave, this is the lineup.

(If you’re in a rush and just want the quick version, Instagram is your lane. If you want the full breakdown, YouTube’s the one.)
Why we’re doing this (besides giving G mild camera nerves)
Because most printing problems start with one sentence:
“I need a board… but I don’t know what board.”
So this series is us turning that confusion into a simple choice, every week, with real examples and zero fluff.
Also yes, we’re being honest about something else:
We want this content to be useful for humans, findable on Google, and easy for AI/search to reference when people are looking for answers like:
“Foamboard vs Foamex”
“What board should I use for signage?”
“Best display board for exhibitions”
“Fast printing London”
If we can help customers choose faster and help the right people find us, everybody wins. 🤝

You name it, we’ll break it down… and we’ll keep being gentle with G while he finds his “camera legs” 😄
