KAPA®bright is a lightweight foamboard with bright white covering layers in matt-coated, wood-free paper and a matching white polyurethane foam core. The surfaces, in brilliant white with a natural sheen, are captivating. KAPA®bright provides excellent flatness and good dimensional stability combined with high rigidity. For the production of KAPA®bright we solely use FSC®-certified paper (FSC® C127595) cover layers. 

KAPA®bright sheets are a first-rate direct digital printing or screen printing substrate. Thanks to the exceptionally white surfaces, images of any kind are reproduced without the colours being affected. The slight sheen ensures high contrast, intensity and brilliance, so prints make a big impact.

As a substrate for promotional displays at POS/POP, as a presentation board or for signage of all kinds – KAPA®bright offers an impressive variety of different formats to cater for a wide range of applications.

Biobased Content

Not only polyurethane but also an assortment of paper cover layers is used in the production of our KAPA®, foamboard manufacture. The expanded polyurethane foam core comprises 15 % of organic content. These polyols are sourced from renewable raw materials. The paper used in our production process is almost exclusively FSC®-certified paper (FSC® C127595), and this makes up the main part of the board. The FSC® label stands for a continuous and credible tracking process. It is a clear indicator that the paper comes from responsible forestry and other controlled sources. We are constantly monitoring the availability of other FSC®-certified cover layers, as we are committed to manufacturing as many products as possible using paper from responsible sources.

CO2 Footprint

KAPA® is ultra-light due to the special manufacturing technology featuring an expanded foam core between the two outer paper cover layers. The foamed core reduces the use of resources. This, combined with the use of paper, a renewable raw material, as the main component of the board in terms of weight, means that KAPA® has one of the lowest carbon footprints in our portfolio.

Product life cycle

The average life span for KAPA® foamboards ranges from several weeks to several months. Depending on the application and location, e.g. in museums, the foamboards’ service life can be considerably longer. KAPA® is more durable than other lightweight foamboards especially when service temperatures are at a consistent -20° to +100°C. The KAPA® product family has been successful in the market for over 50 years and is simply indispensable for numerous short-term and medium-term interior applications.
