Acrylic Glazing
Museum-quality protection for every framed print
FinerWorks glazing uses framing-grade acrylic in four variants to suit any display environment. All options are shatter-resistant and lightweight — safer to ship than glass. Choose from standard clear, reflection control, UV-protective conservation clear, or the top-tier conservation reflection control for comprehensive artwork preservation.
Why we use acrylic glazing
Every FinerWorks frame ships with framing-grade acrylic — not ordinary plastic. It's a great alternative to traditional glass, with real advantages when your framed print has to be shipped and handled.
Shatter-Resistant
Framing-grade acrylic is far safer than traditional glass for shipping and handling, with no risk of breakage during transit.
Lightweight
Acrylic weighs significantly less than glass, which reduces shipping costs.
UV Protection
Conservation-grade variants include UV-blocking agents that shield artwork from sunlight and fluorescent light damage.
Glare Reduction
Reflection control options minimize distracting glare in brightly lit rooms without sacrificing image clarity or color fidelity.
Glazing options
Four variants let you match the glazing to your display environment, lighting conditions, and archival requirements.
Premium Clear
The standard framing-grade acrylic used for picture frames, acrylic plaques, and glass prints. Delivers crisp optical clarity with some reflectivity.
Reflection Control
A diffused surface treatment reduces glare and is especially recommended for rooms with abundant natural or artificial light.
Conservation Clear
Incorporates UV-blocking agents to help preserve artwork from sunlight exposure while maintaining the same optical clarity as Premium Clear.
Conservation Reflection Control
The premium choice — combines UV protection, optical clarity, and glare reduction in a single pane for maximum artwork preservation and display quality.
Choosing the right glazing
Standard and conservation acrylic serve different display needs. Here is how to decide which tier is right for your artwork.
Standard Acrylic
Premium Clear and Reflection Control glazing deliver outstanding clarity and are suitable for most indoor display environments where UV exposure is minimal.
Best for: Interior walls away from direct sunlight, home galleries, office displays, and prints that will be rotated or replaced periodically.
Conservation Acrylic
Conservation Clear and Conservation Reflection Control add UV-blocking chemistry to protect pigments and paper from fading over years of display.
Best for: Heirloom prints, original artwork, limited edition giclees, and any piece displayed near windows or under prolonged artificial lighting.
