Why Acid-Free?

Paper and products with a neutral or basic pH level (7.0 to 9.0), is less prone to yellowing or deterioration, and will not harm photographs that are attached to it. During production, the paper is treated with a mild base (calcium carbonate or magnesium bicarbonate) that neutralizes the natural acids in the wood pulp. This extends the life of the paper, reduces the production expense, and makes it more easily recycled.
