6-ply mat boards are designed for framing projects that call for added depth and a more pronounced visual border. Thicker than standard mats, 6-ply boards create a stronger bevel reveal that adds dimension and gives artwork a more dramatic, gallery-style presentation.
The increased thickness naturally draws attention to the opening, creating a deeper window effect around your piece. This makes 6-ply mats an excellent choice for fine art prints, large-format photography, certificates, and statement pieces where you want the framing details to stand out. They are also well suited for layered mat designs, offering more visual separation between colors when double matting.
In addition to their aesthetic impact, 6-ply mats provide extra sturdiness, making them a solid option for larger frames or projects that benefit from additional structure.
Available in a range of colors and material grades from trusted brands, 6-ply mat boards can be included in a custom DIY frame kit, paired with our Print & Frame service, or ordered on their own. With their substantial profile and elevated look, they add depth, definition, and a refined finishing touch to your framing design.
