Large polysterene boards to kill light spills

<p>Hi, does anyone know where (in the UK) I can buy those large polysterene boards, usually black on one side and white on the other, that you can use to prevent light from spilling or to bounce light? I can't seem to find them when I google them. Do they have a proper name?</p>

<p>thanks in advance,</p>

<p>Foam-core?</p>

<p>In the Uk (I live in Swansea for my sins), they are usually just referred to as polyboards. Keyphoto do them (that's where we get our supply) but they are just white. I just painted the other side with matt black emulsion and ran gaffer tape around the edge to prevent chipping. Builders' merchants usually stock them but we got some a while back and they had a mottled appearance because they were made from recycled materials presumably, the Keyphoto ones are white. Maybe Calumet, Direct Lighting etc. also stock them.</p>

<p>If you have any sort of offic esupply superstore (stateside such as staples or office max, or even wal-mart) they carry foam-core boards... I paid less than $7.00 for a 36x48" one....</p>

<p>Many thanks. I've emailed Keyphoto and Warehouse Express and will see what they say. Best,</p>
