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.
