Choosing the right glazing for your custom frame is essential to protecting and enhancing your artwork, photography, or memorabilia. At Pictureframes.com, we offer four types of high-quality acrylic glazing with foamcore backing, each designed to meet different framing needs. Here’s how to select the best option for your display.

Classic Clear Acrylic – The Versatile Favorite

For a crisp, professional finish, our Classic Clear Acrylic is the go-to choice. This option consists of a 3/16" thick foamcore backing paired with 1/16" thick clear acrylic, giving your artwork a glass-like appearance with excellent protection. Ideal for photography, posters, and artwork of all kinds, this bestselling option offers clarity and durability.

Classic Non-Glare Acrylic – Reduce Reflections

If your artwork will be displayed in a bright room or near windows, consider our Classic Non-Glare Acrylic. It features the same foamcore backing and 1/16" acrylic thickness as our clear option but with a special non-glare finish that minimizes reflections.

*note-Due to the potential for distortion this option works best with single-mat presentations

Premium Heavy-Duty Acrylic – Added Strength for Larger Pieces

For larger artwork or photography, our Premium Heavy-Duty Acrylic provides extra durability. This option features a 3/32" thick clear acrylic sheet, giving it added strength while maintaining a sleek, glass-like appearance. Paired with sturdy foamcore backing, it ensures longevity and stability for oversized frames.

Premium Archival Acrylic – Best for Preservation

When it comes to protecting irreplaceable items, heirlooms, or valuable artwork, our Premium Archival Acrylic is the best choice. This option includes UV-protective acrylic and acid-free foamcore backing, shielding your artwork from harmful light exposure and preventing deterioration over time. Whether you’re framing vintage family photos, museum-quality prints, or historic documents, this archival-grade glazing ensures long-lasting preservation.
