Give 8-ply a Try

8ply alpharag mat board solid core mat conservation galleryToday we want to talk to you about the 8-ply mat.

If you've framed artwork before, you're likely already familiar with a mat. It is a thin, flat piece of paper-based material included within a picture frame, which enhances the look of the art. It also performs other, more protective functions, such as separating the art from the glass.The most common type of mat is relatively thin and comes in a wide variety of colors.

8-ply archival rag mats have become an increasingly popular option that create a very rich look. Each mat’s bevel is twice the depth of a standard mat. The result is a strong and stylish matting option that is being seen more and more in galleries and homes.


With 8 ply archival rag mats you get:
  • a simple, bold design & double the thickness of a regular mat
  • a deep bevel that is striking and highlights your image
  • the highest grade archival museum quality mat available
  • a product that is on the cutting edge for framing art 

The next time you visit our shop, ask to see the 8-ply difference. We're betting you're going to fall in love!
