Not only is this display aesthetically pleasing, but it is also framed using techniques that promote durability and long-term preservation:
- The high-quality materials meet criteria found in the international standards and guidance followed by museums including ISO 18916, ISO 18902, and ASTM B117-03.
- Ultra-protective, museum-grade glass provides 99% UV protection to prevent severe color loss, embrittlement, and deterioration – ensuring the specimen will retain its appearance for many years to come.
- All components in the display are sealed using a permanent, aluminum vapor barrier tape, creating a stable microclimate that prevents degradation from heat, pollution, and moisture. An additional seal is created by the acid-free paper securely attached to the back of the display.
- Metal D-rings attached to the back of the frame ensures that the display can be hung safely and securely.
