Produced with pigment, not dyes, thus ensuring the colours of your framing for years.
In contrast to simple dyes, the pigments of Artcare are not affected by humidity. Making it your guarantee of enduring colour fidelity.
Alphamat Artcare is made using alkaline buffers that protect against ageing. A long life protected from damaging acids ensures that white bevel cut edges stay white when you use Alphamat Artcare
The unique `Micro-Chamber' paper technology filters out harmful pollutants. Your picture is protected from airborne environmental pollutants and acids.

Board sample was tested for 10 days in a wet chamber at 100°F (37,8° C) and 90 % air humidity. All board components maintained both physical appearance and stability
Alkaline surface sizing. Components are laminated using only alkaline and water-based adhesives without solvent.

Artcare mounts and mountboard contain innovative Microchamber papers, that absorb invasive airborne pollutants. This technology renders such substances harmless - both from the outside environment and from materials in the picture and frame. Art, photos, documents - everything that is valuable to you is actively protected from deterioration and ageing. |
