Optium Museum Acrylic^® (anti-reflective)

Conservation Grade UV Protection

Optium Museum Acrylic® Meets Your Rigorous Standards Durable and strong, Optium is produced using a patented Tru Vue technology. A magnetron-sputtered anti-reflective, anti-static coating is bonded to an abrasion resistant, UV filtering acrylic sheet at an atomic level. This ensures long-lasting protection that doesn’t oxidize and degrade over time.
