Greyboard Sheets for Schools, Model Making & Creative Projects

Greyboard is a thick, rigid board made from compressed recycled paper fibres. It is commonly used for mounting artwork, backing displays, model making, bookbinding, packaging prototypes and structural craft projects. Greyboard is much stronger than standard card, making it ideal for classroom use, studios and creative projects that need extra durability.

The right greyboard thickness depends on how you plan to use it. Thinner greyboard is ideal for mounting artwork, backing prints and creating covers, while thicker greyboard provides extra rigidity for model making, packaging prototypes, bookbinding and structural craft projects. If you need a board that holds its shape and supports layered or three-dimensional work, a heavier greyboard is the best choice.

Yes. Greyboard works well with a wide range of materials and finishes. It can be painted with acrylics, poster paint and water-based paints, glued using PVA or strong craft adhesives, and layered to create thicker structures. Its dense surface makes it ideal for mixed media work, mounting and projects where strength and stability are important.

Our greyboard is made from 100% recycled paper fibres, making it a sustainable alternative to virgin board. It is an excellent choice for eco-conscious classrooms, artists and organisations looking to reduce waste while still using a reliable, high-performance material for creative and design work.
