With our <strong>custom-sized backing boards<\/strong>, you can choose the format and material to suit your picture, Passepartout, and frame. Various board qualities and thicknesses are available \u2013 for simple framing, archiving, or mounting pictures.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin: 26px 0 8px; color: #333; font-size: 20px; line-height: 1.4;\">Determining the right size<\/h3>\n<p style=\"margin: 0 0 16px;\">Enter the desired width and height of your backing board in the configurator. For framing, the format is based on the <strong>internal frame size<\/strong>. If using a Passepartout, the backing board usually corresponds to its outer dimensions. The total insert size is decisive, not the size of the image cutout or the outer frame dimensions. Further information can be found under<br \/>\n<a style=\"color: #e87518; text-decoration: none;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.passepartout-versand.de\/en\/measuring-picture-frame-dimensions-correctly\/\">Measuring picture frames correctly<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin: 26px 0 8px; color: #333; font-size: 20px; line-height: 1.4;\">Grey board, Kroma board, or laminated backing board?<\/h3>\n<p style=\"margin: 0 0 16px;\">Choose the backing material based on the intended use and the requirements of your picture. Note the differences in material quality: <strong>RW 1 grey board is not acid-free<\/strong>, <strong>RW 2 Kroma board contains lignin<\/strong>. For conservation framing, you should specifically select a suitable archival quality.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0 0 16px;\">The <strong>RW 3 laminated grey board<\/strong> is 2.0 mm thick and features a white, acid-free lamination on both sides. The term \u201cacid-free laminated\u201d refers to this surface finish.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin: 26px 0 8px; color: #333; font-size: 20px; line-height: 1.4;\">Archival backing boards for high-quality pictures and artworks<\/h3>\n<p style=\"margin: 0 0 16px;\">For conservation framing and archiving, <strong>RW 11, RW 12, RW 13, and RW 14<\/strong> museum-quality archival and mounting boards are available. You can choose between white and cream as well as various material thicknesses.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0 0 16px;\">The <strong>RW 5 archival barrier paper<\/strong> is particularly thin at 0.5 mm. It is suitable as a protective interlayer for framing and storage. When choosing, consider not only the material quality but also how much stability your framing setup requires.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin: 26px 0 8px; color: #333; font-size: 20px; line-height: 1.4;\">Self-adhesive backing boards for mounting pictures<\/h3>\n<p style=\"margin: 0 0 16px;\">If you want to mount a picture flat onto a support, you can choose a self-adhesive backing board. You will find <strong>RW 7, RW 9, and RW 10<\/strong> in various versions in the configurator.<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0 0 16px;\">With the <strong>RW 7 repositionable backing board<\/strong>, the placed picture can still be aligned initially as long as no firm pressure has been applied. A permanent bond forms after approximately 24 hours. The repositionability is therefore an aid during processing and does not mean that the picture can be removed again at any time later.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin: 26px 0 8px; color: #333; font-size: 20px; line-height: 1.4;\">Note material thickness and maximum format<\/h3>\n<p style=\"margin: 0 0 16px;\">The appropriate thickness depends on the picture format, the desired stability, and the available space in the frame. The backing board, picture, Passepartout, and glazing must all fit within the rebate depth of the frame profile. The thickness and the maximum possible cut size can be found directly in the respective material selection.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin: 26px 0 8px; color: #333; font-size: 20px; line-height: 1.4;\">Configure backing board and order to size<\/h3>\n<p style=\"margin: 0 0 16px;\">Select your backing material and enter the desired outer dimensions. Before ordering, double-check the width, height, material, and thickness. Your backing board will be cut according to your configuration.<\/p>\n<div style=\"margin-top: 28px; padding: 18px 20px; background: #f7f7f7; border-left: 4px solid #f58220;\"><strong style=\"display: block; margin-bottom: 4px; color: #333;\">Which backing board is suitable for your picture?<\/strong><br \/>\nFor questions regarding material choice or the mounting of delicate and valuable works<br \/>\n<a style=\"color: #e87518; text-decoration: none;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.passepartout-versand.de\/en\/contact\/\">we are happy to advise you<\/a>.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div style=\"max-width: 700px; margin: 22px auto 22px;\">\n<h1 class=\"entry-title\">Custom-sized backing board<\/h1>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"max-width: 700px; margin: 0 auto 22px; padding-left: 14px; border-left: 2px solid #f58220; color: #555; font-size: 15px; line-height: 1.6;\">\n<p style=\"margin: 0;\">Order your custom-sized backing board to match your picture frame and Passepartout.
