Archival Methods Mat Board,16x20in,2 Ply,Pearl Wht,25Pk #97208

A fusion of elegance and enduring quality, the Archival Methods Conservation Mat Board is meticulously crafted to meet the exacting standards of art preservation. This 16x20-inch, 2-ply pearl white mat board is an essential choice for professionals and enthusiasts seeking a reliable backdrop for their artwork, photographs, and printed materials.

Constructed from alpha-cellulose pulp derived from purified wood fiber, this conservation mat board offers an economical alternative to cotton paper without compromising on stability and longevity. The choice of alpha-cellulose pulp ensures that each board possesses the same archival properties that have safeguarded paper artwork, photographs, and documents for generations.

The mat board's acid-free and lignin-free composition is a testament to its superior quality, ensuring that your valued pieces are protected against discoloration, yellowing, and brittleness. Each board is imbued with alkaline or neutral sizing, further enhancing its durability. To shield your artwork from the often detrimental ambient conditions, the boards are buffered with calcium carbonate, which actively combats the natural acidity that can accumulate in paper products over time.

Pearl White offers a warm tonality that exudes sophistication, setting it apart from the starkness of Bright White Museum Board. Its subtle hue is reminiscent of antique white, yet it possesses less of a yellow tint, striking the perfect balance for a variety of artworks. The board's surface is lustrous, mirroring the look and feel of mat boards made from cotton pulp, while ensuring ease of cutting and handling.

Whether used for creating overmats or presenting your work in a professional setting, the Archival Methods Conservation Mat Board in pearl white is a durable, high-quality choice that reflects your commitment to excellence in art preservation.
