by Graphic Impact – Where Innovation Meets Impressions

At Graphic Impact, we specialize in producing eye-catching, full-color signage that turns heads and stops traffic. One of our most popular materials for creating oversized, visually dynamic displays is Gator Board—also known as Gatorfoam®. A perfect example is the oversized “Cox Guy” standee we produced to mark a new store opening. At first glance, it looks three-dimensional, but it’s actually a flat, digitally printed and contour-cut display. The realism and impact are all thanks to our top-tier printing technology.

What Is Gator Board?

Gator Board is a tough, lightweight material made by sandwiching extruded polystyrene foam between two layers of dense Luxcell wood-fiber veneer. This gives it a rigid structure and smooth surface, making it ideal for high-resolution, full-color printing. It’s more durable than standard foam board and has excellent dimensional stability, which makes it perfect for both temporary promotions and longer-term displays.

Digitally Printed in Full Color

One of the standout features of our Gator Board signage is the incredible color accuracy and detail that can be achieved. Using state-of-the-art UV digital printing equipment, we produce lifelike graphics directly on the surface of the board. From vibrant hues to intricate designs, the printed result is bold, crisp, and professional.

Because Gator Board has a smooth surface, it takes ink beautifully. That means your promotional images, branding elements, and custom artwork will look fantastic at any size. Whether it’s a corporate mascot, a photo-realistic cutout, or a custom retail display, our full-color process ensures maximum impact.

Cut to Any Shape or Size

At Graphic Impact, we offer complete flexibility when it comes to size and shape. Gator Board can be cut with precision to virtually any outline—letters, silhouettes, logos, and custom shapes are all possible. If you can imagine it, we can bring it to life. That’s why it’s a favorite choice for creating life-size stand-ups, oversized cutouts, or displays that truly reflect your brand identity.

For example, our “Cox Guy” cutout wasn’t just printed in vivid color—it was also die-cut to perfectly match the figure’s outline. The result? A stand-up that not only commands attention but also gives the illusion of depth and dimension, even though it’s completely flat.

Applications for Gator Board Signs

Gator Board is a versatile choice for a wide range of projects. Some of the most popular uses include:

  • Retail displays and promotional cutouts
  • Trade show graphics and booth backdrops
  • Stand-up characters for events or branding
  • Interior signage in offices, schools, and hospitals
  • Directional signs for events and venues
  • Photo props for social media or corporate events

Because it’s easy to transport, install, and store, Gator Board is especially popular for temporary promotions and traveling exhibits. But it’s also tough enough to be used in more permanent applications, especially when finished with a protective coating.

Adding Durability with a Clear Coat Finish

While Gator Board is strong on its own, we recommend applying a clear coat finish if your display is meant to last for an extended period. This protective layer enhances durability by adding resistance to scratches, fading, and moisture. A clear coat not only extends the life of the print but also gives it a polished, professional look that catches the light beautifully.

This makes it an excellent option for displays that will be handled often or placed in high-traffic areas. It’s also great for signage that might be exposed to fluctuating humidity or temperature indoors.
