Artcare boards are unique. They<br />
incorporate the MicroChamber<br />
technology which traps and neutralises<br />
airborne acidic pollutants that cause<br />
deterioration and ageing of framed<br />
artwork. The ability of this unique<br />
technology to significantly slow the<br />
ageing process of framed artwork has<br />
also now been carefully monitored<br />
in real time. For more information<br />
