Acid free mat board refers to paper mats that have been manufactured to be acid free.  Because paper naturally contains acid, acid free mat board must be buffered to become pH neutral.  Over time, the buffering on the acid free mat board will wear off and the mat board will become acidic, exposing your artwork to chemical damage such as yellowing and staining.

Because acid free mat board is only temporarily acid free, it is not considered archival and should not be used for conservation purposes.  If you want to mat original, one-of-a-kind works of art, limited edition prints, or any type of valuable paper memorabilia, you should not use an acid free mat board.  Instead, you should use an archival, museum quality rag board that is naturally acid free.  Mat board comes into direct contact with the artwork, so if you want to preserve and protect your artwork, you should choose a mat board such as Crescent Ragmat or Bainbridge Alpharag.

Acid free mat board is an appropriate choice for matting open edition reproductions, such as giclees, photographs, or posters.  Acid free mat board is also appropriate for temporary display purposes.

Documounts offers 2 different brands of acid free mat board: Crescent Papermat and Bainbridge Papermat.  They are all a 4 ply acid free mat board, available with either a white core or a black core.  A “white core” acid free mat board will have a white bevel, while a “black core” acid free mat board will have a black bevel.  These acid free mat boards are available in a wide range of over 100 different colors.

When you buy 4 or more of the same size acid free mat board, you will receive a bulk discount.  The more acid free mat boards that you buy, the deeper the discount becomes.  This is ideal for artists and photographers who sell their artwork at art fairs and need to buy acid free mat board in bulk.

In addition to acid free mat board, Documounts sells all of the supplies that you will need to mat, mount, frame and display your artwork!  You can easily prepare for your next art show when you shop at Documounts.

An 8×10 mat is one of the most common sizes for matting artwork.  If you need more than one 8×10 mat, you will enjoy enormous savings when you buy your 8×10 mats in bulk from Documounts.  This is an ideal solution for artists and photographers who expect volume sales at art fairs and art galleries.

Documounts offers standard quality 8×10 mats in packs of 25 as follows:

8×10 Single White Mat Pack

8×10 Double White Mat Pack

8×10 Single Black Mat Pack

8×10 Double Black Mat Pack

The inside opening of these 8×10 mats are 4.5” x 6.5”, allowing the display of a 5” x 7” image.  These 8×10 mat packs are the economical choice that will allow you to sell your artwork and photographs already matted.

The mats in these 8×10 mat packs are cut from mat board that is pH neutral, meaning that in time the protective buffering will wear off and contributing to the yellowing and fading of the artwork.  If you would like to mat your artwork with an archival 8×10 mat that will neutralize the acid and slow the deterioration of the piece, then you can order an 8×10 mat cut from Bainbridge Alphamat board.  If conservation is a priority, then you will want to order your 8×10 mat cut from Bainbridge Alpharag mat board.  This type of 8×10 mat is the top-quality choice for acid-free protection.

If you want to order a custom cut 8×10 mat in a different quality of mat board, or in a different color, or even with a different inside window shape or size, you can still order your custom cut 8×10 mat in large quantities and receive generous discounts when you buy in bulk.  You only need to buy 4 of the same 8×10 mat to start experiencing discounts!  The more you buy, the more you will save.

Option 8 – Weighted Window Frame Matting

Custom frame matting typically comes with a centered window opening, so that distance from the window to the edge of the frame is consistent from top to bottom and side to side.  We also offer the option of weighted window frame matting.   A weighted window will typically have an additional ½” to 1” of space from the bottom of the window to the edge of the frame matting.  This additional space helps to balance the look of the artwork and can also add visual interest to smaller pieces of artwork.
