IronGrip 5: The PVC Foam Board with Unmatched Screw-Holding Power

Nov 3,2025
In the world of interior design, furniture production, and architectural materials, PVC foam board has become one of the most versatile and reliable solutions. Known for its lightweight nature, moisture resistance, and easy machinability, PVC foam board is widely used for cabinets, furniture, wall panels, and decorative elements.

However, as market demands evolve, designers and builders alike have been seeking a stronger material — one that not only maintains the advantages of PVC foam board but also offers superior strength and screw-holding capacity.

To meet this challenge, Boardway proudly introduces IronGrip 5, our next-generation PVC foam board that redefines what strength means in this category.

1. What Makes IronGrip 5 Different?


IronGrip 5 PVC foam board

IronGrip 5 is not just another PVC foam board.

It's an evolution of structure and performance. Developed through an advanced co-extrusion process, IronGrip 5 features an enhanced multi-layered construction designed to significantly boost internal rigidity and screw-holding power.

While traditional foam boards tend to lose screw grip under heavy load or repeated use, IronGrip 5 was engineered to lock screws securely, even under extreme stress. It maintains its lightweight characteristic, yet delivers unprecedented strength — a balance rarely achieved in polymer-based sheet materials.

"IronGrip 5 was developed for applications where strength, precision, and reliability truly matter — from kitchen cabinets and furniture panels to wall and decorative surfaces."

2. Real Test, Real Strength: The IronGrip 5 Challenge

At Boardway, we believe that performance should be proven — not just promised. That's why IronGrip 5 underwent a series of real-world strength tests to demonstrate its superior screw-holding capability.


In the test, two screws were fixed into the board to secure a heavy-duty woven strap. Then, three people of different weights — 58kg, 75kg, and 88kg — took turns standing on the strap's center section while the board was lifted by a forklift.

The result?

  • No bending.
  • No cracking.
  • No screw loosening.
  • Even when the test was pushed to the next level — with one person hanging their full body weight from a single screw position, and later sitting on the board as it swung like a swing seat — IronGrip 5 held firm.


    This wasn't a laboratory simulation. It was a real demonstration of just how much load and stress IronGrip 5 can withstand in real-world use.


    3. The Engineering Behind IronGrip 5's Strength

    The exceptional performance of IronGrip 5 comes from Boardway's precision-engineered co-extrusion technology. Each layer of the board is designed to contribute specific mechanical properties: surface hardness, internal stability, and flexibility balance. The result is a multi-layered internal structure that distributes stress evenly, prevents deformation, and reinforces screw retention.

    Moreover, IronGrip 5 is produced using high-purity PVC resin and carefully selected foaming agents to ensure consistent density and optimal strength-to-weight ratio. Combined with our controlled production environment and strict quality inspection, every board that leaves the factory is built to meet industrial-grade reliability standards.

    "Each layer in IronGrip 5 is engineered for a purpose — together, they create a board that's strong, stable, and built to last."
