Benefits of Plastics in Framing Applications
The benefits of using plastics for framing and mounting are countless. Performance plastics are tough and durable, which is perfect for works of art that require critical protection. Acrylic sheet for example, is one of the most commonly used materials for framing, mounting, and displays thanks to the numerous advantages this material offers.
Acrylic is seventeen times more impact resistant than glass, but only half the weight. As a result, acrylic helps protect what’s inside the frame while it’s on the wall or in transit. Acrylic also offers UV absorption properties that filter out over 98% of damaging ultraviolet rays. UV blocking and non-glare acrylics have become a staple in the high-quality framing industry. Piedmont also carries a variety of substrates, from Gatorfoam® products to acid-free materials, to be used for mounting artwork, photographs, images, and documents.
