Glass and Glazing

There are a variety of choices.  We can show you samples of each and help you to decide which will work best with your project

• Conservation Glass filters up to 97% of Ultra-Violet light that may cause framed pieces to fade.  It is also available in Non-glare
• Museum Glass blocks out 99% of Ultra-Violet light and has an anti-reflective coating which virtually eliminates all glare.  It is almost undetectable.  This is the very best option
• Acrylic or PlexiGlass is a form of hard plastic and is much lighter than glass. Acrylic is almost impossible to break and can be treated with Ultra-Violet properties.  The reduced weight makes it a very good option for large pieces.  However, Acrylic does tend to attract dust, scratches easily and should be cleaned with special cleaners and soft clothes.
• Premium clear glass is an affordable option that will protect your art from dust and dirt, but will not protect is from UV light. This is also available in non-glare, which gives a matte finish.  Non-glare will also dull the image under the glass (more mats yields more diffusion).

Whether Glass or Acrylic it is best to use an Ultra-Violet blocking material
