MATERIAL DESCRIPTION
Honeycomb board is available in a range of sheet sizes and thicknesses to suit different display, signage and structural requirements. We primarily work with Ultraboard Graphic, a trade-grade honeycomb board known for its flat print face and consistent performance, while also supporting alternative honeycomb and fibre boards where specific project requirements call for them.
Depending on application, we can also source and print onto boards such as Xanita, Re-board, Falcon board and Gator board. Our team will advise on the most appropriate option based on size, weight, fixing method and intended lifespan to ensure the material performs as expected in use.

Single Sided– Honeycomb board can be digitally printed direct to the face of the material on our large format printers using UV cured inks which offer market leading print quality, robustness and longevity.
Double Sided – Honeycomb board can be printed on both sides with the same or varying artwork images. Our large format printers allow for perfect registration given accurate double sided prints.
Matt Lamination Protect your printed graphics with a matt over laminate and give your print a completely flat appearance which will not reflect light. Available on prints up to 1600mm wide
Gloss Lamination Protect your printed graphics with a gloss over laminate and give your print shiny high gloss appearance which brings out colours and reflection. Available on prints up to 1600mm wide
Dry-wipe Lamination Transform the surface of your honeycomb board into a dry-wipe board capable of being written on with dry wipe pens. Available in both gloss and matt dry wipe on prints up to 1600mm wide.
Anti-Graffiti Lamination Once applied to the surface of honeycomb board our anti-graffiti laminate will give a high gloss finish whilst offering protection to the print and the ability to clean away pen, paint and spray damage.
Crystal Protection Lamination will offer a physical coating protecting the print surface from damage and giving it a slightly textured matt finish. This makes it more robust to any surface marking.
Square Cutting – honeycomb board can be supplied cut to any required square or rectangular panel size within the maximum sheet size. For guaranteed accuracy all of our material is cut on a laser guided cutting table
Simple Shapes – including radius corners, circles, triangles and basic shapes are possible with a high level of accuracy and quality of finish when cut on our laser guided cutting tables.
Complex Shapes – including standees and freestaning displays are possible when cut on our market leading Kongsberg X44 cutting table which is capable of drag knife and router cutting.
V Cutting – using a special knife we can cut honeycomb board with a V cut to the reverse allowing it to be folded up to 45 degrees. This is great for creating freestanding displays and seamless angles.
Double sided adhesive – By applying an adhesive to one side of the material you can transform XMATERIAL into a sticker. Our adhesive range includes removable, permanent and repositionable.
Vinyl application – you can add special colours to a design such as metallics or pantones not achievable through CMYK printing by applying plotter cut vinyls of a chosen colour or finish to the material face.
Spot UV – Varnish – you can introduce areas of matt or gloss finish to your design with our digitally printed UV varnish inkjet heads. Pick out logos, text or images and bring additional focus to your print.
Strut – Make your print freestanding with the application of a strut to the reverse. This can be a single small rudder strut or a large box strut for bigger displays. We now also offer a more permanent metal strut option.
Velcro – looking to attach your print to a wall? We can apply velcro hook and loop to the reverse allowing it to be attached to a wall or surface and easily removed and replaced. Popular for exhibition stand graphics.
Magnetic Tape – with magnetic tape applied to the perimeter of your print you can affix it to metal walls or any other metal surface. Often used in the exhibition industry or in point of sale retail environments
Packing in sets – we offer a full collation and packing service, especially useful when you have multiple items or designs that need to be sent to different locations. A very popular extra finishing service we offer with point of sale campaigns.
At Wallace Print we stock Ultraboard Dufaylite, Reboard & Falcon Board
We stock a range of high-quality honeycomb boards suitable for printed signage and display applications, including Ultraboard by Dufaylite, Re-board, Falcon Board and Gator Board. These materials are selected for their consistent structure, flat print faces and suitability for large format print.
Honeycomb board is increasingly specified across point of sale, retail and exhibition environments where a lightweight yet rigid panel is required. Constructed with a paper-based hexagonal core, it provides excellent strength and stability while remaining easy to handle and install. As an alternative to foam-centred boards, honeycomb offers a more robust internal structure without significantly increasing weight.
Most honeycomb boards are manufactured from recycled paper and are fully recyclable, with FSC-sourced options available. The material is designed primarily for internal use and is available in a range of thicknesses, with 10mm and 19mm being the most commonly specified. Ultraboard features a visible brown honeycomb edge as standard, with optional edge finishing strips available where a cleaner edge detail is preferred.
All honeycomb board printing is produced in-house using UV digital flatbed printers, ensuring accurate colour and clean detail. We can print directly to board up to 1220 × 2440mm, with larger panels up to 1550 × 3050mm available via print-and-mount where required. Our team can advise on board choice, thickness and production method to ensure suitability for the intended application.
