Oregon Home | 33 The teams at Beard’s Framing and Frame Central can advise you on the ideal type of glazing for your specific framing needs. With Tru Vue products like Conservation Glass, Optium Acrylic and Museum Glass, you can trust you are getting the very best materials to display, protect and preserve your most cherished artwork. pnwframing.com Museum Glass Museum Glass offers almost zero glare and also filters out 99% of UV rays. “If you have an intricate piece of art and you want to see every detail, Museum is the best glass option,” Parsons notes. Conservation Clear Glass Conservation Clear Glass is designed to filter out up to 99% of ultraviolet rays, which can cause artwork and photos to fade and turn yellow over time. Conservation Reflection Control Glass One of the main reasons to opt for specialty glazing is to reduce glare. If the art or photo will be displayed in a bright location or one with direct sunlight, glare can make it difficult to view details. Reflection Control Glass can help to reduce this glare. This glass also protects against 99% of UV rays. Conservation Clear Acrylic When framing oversize pieces, weight becomes an important factor. Glass glazing, which does offer striking clarity, can become quite heavy and difficult to work with in large formats. Tru Vue Conservation Clear Acrylic is an ideal choice for reducing weight while still providing protection and visibility. It also filters out 99% of UV rays. Optium Museum Acrylic For ultimate protection, Optium Museum Acrylic offers premium UV protection at 99%, antireflection, scratch resistance and antistatic properties to prevent damage and preserve the beauty of cherished pieces. It’s simply the best of the best. Conservation Reflection Control Acrylic Glazing like Tru Vue’s Reflection Control Acrylic has an etched surface, providing a matte finish to reduce glare to enhance the art’s clarity. Acrylic is lighter in weight, and this option offers 99% UV protection. Regular Reflection Control Glass & Acrylic These options offer non-glare technology and 99% UV protection. Reflection Control Glass is available at Frame Central only. Regular Glass & Acrylic Regular glass is the least expensive and most basic option. Tru Vue’s regular glass and regular acrylic are both higher-quality options than what may be purchased at a home-goods store. GLAZING IS ALL ABOUT PROTECTING AND PRESERVING YOUR ARTWORK WHILE ENHANCING THE VIEWING OF IT.” JENNIFER PARSONS NORTHWEST FRAMING
