Bainbridge Alpharag Artcare mats are the superior choice for matting original artwork and limited edition reproductions.  If you want your artwork to last for generations, Bainbridge Alpharag mats are the ideal matting solution for conservation framing purposes.

When you want to mat your artwork with an archival mat that will protect and preserve your artwork, Bainbridge Alpharag mats are far recommended over paper mats.  Here’s why: Bainbridge Alpharag mats are made from 100% cotton rag, so they are naturally acid and lignin free.  Paper mats, on the other hand, need to be chemically treated in order to become temporarily acid-free – and even then, the protective buffering will eventually wear off.  Bainbridge Alpharag mats will never become acidic, so they are the best option for matting one-of-a-kind works of art.

You will have plenty of choices for customizing your Bainbridge Alpharag mats to most effectively showcase your artwork.  Bainbridge Alpharag mats are available in a variety of colors.  Bainbridge Alpharag mats are solid core, which means that the bevel will match the color of the front of the mat board.  When you order Bainbridge Alphrag mats, you can order them as single, double or triple mats.

Bainbridge Alpharag mats are available in 4 ply or 8 ply. The term “ply” describes the thickness of the mat.  A 4 ply mat is 1/16 of an inch, which is the standard size for mats.  Bainbridge Alpharag 8 ply mats, on the other hand, are double the thickness of the standard 4 ply mats.  The deeper bevel of the Bainbridge Alpharag 8 ply mats creates a stunning and sophisticated presentation for your artwork.

When you buy a lot of Bainbridge Alpharag mats from Documounts, you will save when you buy in bulk.  You only need to buy 4 or more of the same Bainbridge Alpharag mats to begin receiving the bulk discount.  The more you buy, the more you save!

In addition to Bainbridge Alpharag mats, Documounts also sells all of the necessary supplies that you will need to mat, mount, frame and display your artwork!

The art board mounting that you use to mount your art will come into direct contact with your artwork, so it is very important to choose the right art board mounting for your needs.  Documounts carries 3 types of art board mounting: archival, standard and adhesive.  If you’re not sure which would be the ideal type of art board mounting for you to use, read through the following descriptions of each of the art board & mounting boards to decide which one is best for you.

Archival art board mounting is the top choice for mounting important and valuable works of art, such as originals or limited edition prints.  Archival art board mounting options include Bainbridge archival foam core and Bainbridge Artcare 4 ply mount board.

Standard art board mounting is ideal for mounting open edition prints, posters and photography.  This type of art board mounting is not archival.  Standard art board mounting is available as foam core and as chip board.

Adhesive art board mounting is also not archival.  It is a permanent art board mounting solution, so it should only be used for mounting inexpensive prints, posters, and photographs.  You do not need to buy separate adhesives when you buy adhesive mount board.

When you buy art board mounting from Documounts, you can choose nearly any size that you need, and we will expertly cut your art board mounting to fit your specifications.  Plus, when you buy 4 or more of the same custom cut art board mounting, you’ll receive a volume discount.  The discount gets even bigger when you buy even more.  The discount increases at each of the following amounts: 4, 8, 16, 48, 250, 1000 & 5000.

For the archival and standard art board mounting, you will also need to purchase an adhesive for mounting your artwork onto the board.  Documounts sells many different types of adhesives, such as linen mounting tape, mounting corners, conservation paper tape, and spray adhesive, as well as many others.  We also sell mat board, frames, glazing, and all of the framing supplies that you will need to display your artwork!

Ordering archival mat board is easy when you shop at Documounts.  We sell four different types of archival mat board: Bainbridge Alpharag Mat Board, Bainbridge Alphamat Board, Bainbridge Top Mat Board and Crescent Rag Mat.  All of these archival mat boards are museum-quality options for presenting, preserving and protecting your artwork.  When conservation framing is important, then archival mat board is the way to go.

Archival mat board is made from either 100% cotton rag, or alpha cellulose.  Bainbridge Alpharag and Crescent Rag Mat are archival mat boards made from cotton rag.  These mats are naturally acid and lignin free.  Bainbridge Alphamat and Top Mat are archival mat boards made from alpha cellulose.  These mats have been chemically treated to be permanently acid-free.

How do you know which archival mat board to choose?  Keep the following factors in mind when deciding which type of archival mat board will best suit your needs:

• If you want a colored mat other than the standard white, off-white or black, you will be delighted with the wide variety of colors available for Bainbridge Alphamats.  These archival mat boards are available in over 100 colors, such Riviera Red, Renaissance Gold and Venetian Blue.
• If you want a black core archival mat that is a bit thicker than the standard 4 ply mats, then Bainbridge Top Mats are the mats for you.  Bainbridge Top Mat is a 6 ply archival mat board that is 1.5 times thicker than the standard 4 ply mat.
• If you want a solid core archival mat that has a stunningly deep bevel, then the 8 ply Alpharag mats are just what you need.  The 8 ply Alpharag archival mat boards are twice as thick as the standard 4 ply mats. The extra thickness of these archival mat boards creates a more sculptural presentation that beautifully showcases your artwork.

When you buy 4 or more of the same custom cut archival mat board from Documounts, you will receive a discount.  When you buy more than that, the discount gets even deeper!  The more you buy, the more you save.  You can also buy all of the supplies that you’ll need to mat, mount and frame your artwork at Documounts.

Archival foam core is the ideal mounting option for protecting and preserving important or valuable works of art.  You should use archival foam core if you need to mount any of the following:

• original, one-of-a-kind works of art on paper
• limited edition reproductions, such as giclees or photographs
• signed and numbered hand-pulled prints, such as etchings
• any kind of important paper memorabilia that you want to last for future generations, such as newspaper clippings or certificates

Archival foam core is the museum-quality choice for mounting these types of artworks.  Archival foam core is made with MicroChamber technology that will protect your artwork against chemical damage and environmental pollutants.

Documounts sells Bainbridge archival foam core in two different thicknesses: 1/8” and 3/16”.  The thicker archival foam core is ideal for mounting larger works of art that need more support.  Both thicknesses of foam core are lightweight, yet sturdy.  They will not break or bend.  Both thicknesses of archival foam core are available for the same price!

The 1/8” archival foam core is available in white.  The 3/16” archival foam core is available in both white and black.  Black archival foam core is an excellent option when displaying newspaper clippings, because the print on the reverse side will not show through as much as it would if you mounted the newspaper clipping on white foam core.  Black archival foam core is also a good choice when using a black core mat.

If you need to buy a lot of archival foam core to prepare your artwork for an upcoming art show, then you will enjoy the volume discount you’ll receive when you buy a large quantity of archival foam core from Documounts!  The bulk discount begins when you buy just 4 or more of the same size archival foam core.  The pricing gets lower at the following increments: 4, 8, 16, 48, 250, 1000 & 5000.  This is perfect for artists who sell a lot of artwork at art festivals and art galleries!

In addition to archival foam core, Documounts also sells mats, frames, glazing, and various other supplies that you will need to mat, mount and frame your artwork.

Bainbridge Alpharag Artcare mats are the museum-quality solution for matting original, one-of-a-kind works of art and limited edition reproductions (such as hand-pulled prints, photographs or giclees).  If conservation framing is a top priority, then Bainbridge Alpharag Artcare mats are the ideal choice to ensure that your artwork will last for generations to come.  Bainbridge Alpharag Artcare mats not only present your artwork in style – they also preserve your artwork by protecting it against chemical deterioration.

Bainbridge Alpharag Artcare mats are made from 100% cotton rag.  Cotton rag is naturally acid and lignin free, which means that they won’t become acidic over time, like pH neutral paper mats will.  For this reason, Bainbridge Alpharag Artcare mats are the archival choice for matting important and/or valuable artwork.

Alpharag Artcare mats are available in a variety of colors.  You can choose to buy Alpharag Artcare mats in 4 ply or 8 ply.  4 ply Alpharag Artcare mats are 1/16” thick, which is the standard thickness for mats.  8 ply Alpharag Artcare mats are 1/8” thick – double the thickness of the standard mats.  The deeper bevel of the 8 ply Alpharag Artcare mats creates a more striking, sculptural presentation of your artwork.

If you need to buy a lot of Alpharag Artcare mats, you will be delighted to know that Documounts offers generous bulk discounts when you buy a large quantity of Alpharag Artcare mats.  The best thing is that you don’t even need to buy a huge amount of Alpharag Artcare mats to qualify for the bulk discount.  You only need to buy 4 of the same custom cut Alpharag Artcare mat to receive a quantity discount.  The more you buy, the deeper the discount becomes!

At Documounts, you can also buy all of the matting, mounting and framing supplies that you will need to display and sell your artwork at art festivals, gallery shows, and studio sales

An acrylic glass sheet is an excellent glazing option when framing your artwork.  There are many reasons to frame your artwork behind an acrylic glass sheet rather than to frame your art behind real glass.  For one thing, acrylic glass sheets are much lighter than glass, so they are easier to ship and to carry.  Plus, acrylic glass sheets are impact resistant.  Real glass is highly susceptible to shattering and breaking, which can be dangerous to your safety.  It also jeopardizes the safety of your artwork.

Documounts offers 4 types of acrylic glass sheets:

1. Standard acrylic glass sheets are crystal clear.
2. Non-glare acrylic glass sheets have a matte finish that minimizes the glare and reflection of the acrylic glass sheets.
3. UV Resistant acrylic glass sheets protect your artwork against the damage of UV rays by filtering out 98% of UV rays from both natural and artificial light sources.  UV rays damage artwork by causing fading and facilitating the aging process, so UV Resistant acrylic glass sheets are an excellent way to combat this problem.
4. Non-glare UV Resistant acrylic glass sheets have the benefit of both reducing glare and filtering out 98% of damaging UV rays.  Both types of UV Resistant glazing are ideal for conservation framing.

The acrylic glass sheets that we carry at Documounts are called Acrylite Acrylic, an industry leader in acrylic sheets for framing.  When you buy 12 or more of the same acrylic glass sheets, you will receive a discount.

In addition to acrylic glass sheets, Documounts also sells mats, mount boards, frames, and all of the basic supplies that you’ll need for matting and framing your artwork.  We offer generous volume discounts on many of these items, which is excellent news for artists, photographers and galleries that need to mat and frame a large quantity of artwork!
