Thin Acid-Free Foam Core Board 1/8

Thin Acid-Free Foam Core Details

FCafThin is Bainbridge Artcare acid-free foam core in a thinner format. It combines lightweight support with MicroChamber technology designed to absorb and neutralize airborne pollutants while using less package depth than the standard acid-free board.

The board is cut to the exact width and height entered. Its lower profile is useful when photographs, prints, documents, and other components must be kept within a tighter available depth.

Best Uses

Choose this board for photographs, prints, documents, and longer-term projects that call for acid-free support in a thinner format. It can serve as backing or as support for an attachment method chosen for the artwork.

Material and Functional Characteristics

Its opaque, lightly textured soft-white surface reduces show-through, provides tooth for adhesive grip, and is made without optical brighteners. The acid-free facing and Artcare technology distinguish this board from FCregThin; its reduced thickness distinguishes it from FCaf.
