We carry Backing Boards in many different thickness as well as for short-term, long-term and indefinite storage.
Choose the backing board that best matches your storage needs.
SHORT-TERM STORAGE
• Short-Term Storage - Chipboard - pH neutral (contains acid) .030" thick. White on one side. ECONOMICAL.
• Short-term Storage - our Corrugated cardboard is either .0625"thick (E-Flute, white on two sides) or .1875"thick (C-Flute, white on 2 sides). It is a popular choice for a backing board because it is rigid and economical.
LONG-TERM STORAGE
• Long-Term Storage - Basic Board - .024" thick. Double white. Coated one side. Coated side is acid-free. Use for intermediate to long-term storage.
• Long-term Storage - Standard Acid-free Board is acid-free all the way through. Acid-free board can trap migrating acids in paper and neutralize it. Use our .028" thick board for intermediate to long-term storage. White on both sides.
