Archival Methods Museum Board 32x40 Bright White 2 Ply PKG 25

With the Archival Methods Museum Board, you're investing in a premium, 100% cotton fiber product that is designed to protect and preserve your precious prints, documents, and photographs. This bright white, neutral tone board is acid- and lignin-free, ensuring your artwork remains vibrant and unaffected by the destructive effects of acid migration.

The board is buffered with calcium carbonate, providing a protective shield against environmental pollutants that could potentially decrease the pH of the mat board and make it more acidic over time. The 2-ply construction, approximately 1/32" in thickness, offers added durability and resistance to wear and tear, making it an ideal choice for matting, mounting, and preservation purposes.

This museum board is crafted without the use of optical brightening agents, ensuring the integrity and longevity of your artwork. The paper is free from metal particles, waxes, plasticizers, and residual bleach peroxide, with sulfur and iron content kept to a minimum.

The alkaline sizing used in both internal and external applications ensures the board's resistance to moisture, while the absence of alum in the manufacturing process further enhances its archival quality. The board's color dyes are light-fast and non-bleeding, ensuring your prints retain their original color and vibrancy.

The Archival Methods Museum Board passes the stringent Photographic Activity Test (PAT) ISO IT 18916, confirming its suitability for preserving traditional and digital photographs. The board's lignin content is tested to meet TAPPI 236 cm-85 standards, with a Kappa number of less than five, indicating its superior quality.

Whether you're using it for window mats, mat backing of small prints, or as a stiffener/support material in Polyethylene or Crystal Clear Bags, this 2-ply board provides a 1/32" separation between your artwork and its glazing, offering a flat, supportive backing for both display and storage. Trust the Archival Methods Museum Board for the preservation and presentation of your most cherished pieces.
