Today, virtually all museums and libraries rely on 100% acid-free cotton rag matboard.

Cotton is nature’s purest form of cellulose. It is inherently free of lignin, acid and other non-cellulose contaminants found in wood pulp. Cotton fiber pulp is reliable, sturdy and far superior to bleached, chemically processed wood pulp used to produce other conservation boards. Cotton has a natural, lasting brightness that does not require the high level of bleaching agents typically used to whiten chemically processed wood pulp boards.

There are several categories of mat board and they are all separated by the level of protection offered the art work being framed. While some say that acidic framing materials should be avoided for all but the most temporary frames, it is not safe to say that all “acid-free” mats are recommended for long term preservation use.

Cotton fibre is naturally free of lignin and acids. It contains no alum and no harsh chemicals. and the core and backing of cotton rag are all made from 100% virgin cotton linter pulp. This assures unequaled cleanliness and purity.
