Crystal Clear Archival Bags
  • Application

    We recommend Crystal Clear Archival Bags to protect your artwork, photographs, postcards, and other documents while on display, during handling, or in storage. The Biaxially Oriented Polypropylene (BOPP) has excellent clarity, a low electrostatic charge, is acid-free, and is safe for long-term storage.

    These bags feature a safety seal flap and adhesive closure strip on the bag. It is easily peeled and re-sealable. Acid-free Foamboard or Card Stock, sold separately, can be used for additional support.

    If you would prefer no flap, see the 3-Sided Sleeves which are made of the same material but are open on one end.

    86-1117 won't be in stock again until late January of 2022. Consider using the next size up, 86-1319, or using 3-Sided Sleeves 390-1117.

  • Features

    Our Crystal Clear Archival Bags have a protective adhesive closure strip located on the body of the bag, not the flap. This adhesive placement is important because when the contents are removed or re-inserted there is less chance of the artwork sticking to the adhesive strip. We still recommend that you insert and remove items carefully from these sleeves.

    Bags are sized to accommodate a thickness of matted prints or multiple prints. Bags up to 11 x 14" will accommodate 3/16" in thickness, and bags 12 x 16" and larger will accommodate 3/8" thickness. Each bag is sealed on three sides and opens on the short side with a 1-1/2” flap.

  • Specifications

    • Bags up to 11x14 will accommodate 3/16’’ thickness.

    • Bags 12x16 and larger will accommodate 3/8’’ thickness.

    • 1.5 mil (BOPP) polypropylene is archival safe for long-term storage.

    • Re-sealable adhesive strip just below the opening of the bag instead of on the flap.

    • Sealed on 3 sides and opening on short side with 1-1/2" flap.

    • All bags are manufactured (+/ -) 1/16" of the size listed.

    • BOPP is Biaxially Oriented Polypropylene has excellent clarity, low electrostatic charge and high tensile strength. Corona treatment on both sides.

  • Resources

    Here is a formula to calculate the size of a bag for storing books and other three dimensional objects. First measure the Width, Length, and Depth (thickness) of your book or item.

    Add the Width + Depth of book + 2 inches

    Add the Length + Depth of book + 3 inches

    Example: Book is 7.25 x 9.25 x 1 inch

    7.25 (width) + 1 (depth) + 2 = 10.25 inches

    9.25 (length) + 1 (depth) + 3 = 13.25 inches

    The flat bag should be at least: 10-1/4 x 13-1/4 inches
