Our 12pt Blockout Poster Board is printed in full color on C2S coated poster board with a black adhesive middle layer for a sturdy, opaque indoor display print. Made by laminating two coated sheets together, this blockout poster board helps prevent light from showing through while keeping graphics sharp and visible for POP displays, grand openings, political marketing, event promotion, trade shows, retail signage, featured product displays, informational signs, and indoor promotional graphics.
Blockout poster board is best suited for indoor use. The opaque center layer helps block light from passing through, making it a strong choice for display areas where standard poster paper may look too thin or transparent.

Custom 12pt blockout poster board printing is a large format printing option for indoor poster boards, opaque display boards, POP signs, retail displays, grand opening signs, political marketing signs, event promotion boards, trade show graphics, product displays, and indoor promotional signage.
SoCal Business Cards provides professional large format printing for businesses, retailers, event planners, schools, offices, political campaigns, trade show exhibitors, restaurants, venues, and organizations across Southern California including Costa Mesa, Irvine, Huntington Beach, Newport Beach, Anaheim, Los Angeles, and San Diego. Our blockout poster boards are printed in full color on 12pt C2S coated stock with an opaque black adhesive center layer.
These custom blockout poster boards are commonly used for POP displays, grand openings, retail promotions, political marketing, event signs, trade show displays, featured product graphics, menu displays, directional signs, and indoor advertising where a thicker, more opaque poster material is preferred.
Blockout poster board is a strong choice for customers who want a more rigid, opaque print than standard poster paper. The coated surface provides a clean semi-gloss appearance, while the blockout center helps prevent light from showing through the board.
Blockout poster board artwork should be submitted in CMYK color mode with high-resolution files whenever possible. Add 0.5" bleed per side and keep important text, logos, borders, and design elements at least 0.5" inside the final trim size. For grommeted poster boards, allow extra safe area near the corners.
Pair your blockout poster board with large format printing, glossy photo paper poster printing, semi-gloss photo paper poster printing, and backlit poster printing for a consistent branded presentation.
