As the description mentions that these boxes are good for "archival filing" and in a separate location they say for photo storage...are they acidfree?

I am not sure if they are acid free. I have been using mine for a filing system for my customer files. The box is good. Although I suggest if you are looking to store pictures in them, if the boxes are going to be moved around a lot, you might want to look elsewhere because when you move this box the snaps come undone a lot.

I didn't see anywhere in the package that said acid free. I would NOT store pics in them bc they don't seal. I bought it for storing my large laminated recipe cards in. I personally use the Sterilite nesting boxes from Walmart for my pictures. You can probably find them on here too!

Hi. I don't think they are advertised as acid free so I wouldn't use them for something important. Also, they aren't exactly airtight.

They really wouldn't be safe in these. You have to use a box or they will warp or break. I purchase records on this site and the ones in boxes sometimes don't even make the trip because they get tossed around in shipping.

According to their catalog, C-Line says these are "highest quality acid-free polypropylene material to ensure archival quality protection." http://www.c-lineproducts.com/catalog.html (see page 48)

I ordered these boxes and they were great for wedding favors, very easy to put together. I'm not sure I understand your question, but there were no seals with my order. The order was for boxes only. Hope this helps!

I use them for postcards. I guess you could use them for photos. I don't see any harm.

I don't think so. I am not at home, but an 8x10 photo completely fills it. That's why I like them; there is no free space. I worked in pharmaceutical manufacturing and we used some heavy poly sleeves to protect batch records, so I know they are out there. I've forgotten the source...might look at lab or safety suppliers. Good hunting!

Francisco, I use Print File archival preservers and have for many years. I don't know what they are made of but they are a clear plastic. Pictures show through fine and I have never had a photo damaged. I highly recommend.

http://www.c-lineproducts.com/qp424-35mm-storage-photo.html description doesn't specify archival quality. Have noted no deterioration of photos in 2 years but certainly that may not be indicative

Yes, I use them to protect some autographed 8x10 photos and have found them very useful. They have a slight tint which I believe is to reduce UV exposure, but I cannot confirm that. They are thick enough to be hardy but still manageable.

I bought two photo boxes from Michael's craft store and that held my entire collection with space to spare. I like them because they have lids so nothing gets dusty but you can find cute designs if that's your thing. Enjoy!

Hi. I'm not sure if the paper is acid free. I use it to wrap items that I sell.

I tried putting in several 4x6 photos in the box and it bent them. You unfortunately can't stand them up which they need to be when stored. This won't work for you. Sorry but I feel you would regret it. I like the box a lot but I use it for important papers that lay flat.

Nope sorry, but just know (because I didn't) these are not an acid free, light fast, archival medium. They will fade and change with time.

Yes, it is. These boxes are the best for mailing records. They fold easily over, and they are absolutely wonderful. You will love them for shipping records. Well worth the buy. Thanks for asking.

Yes, and they are beautiful!!Sorry, it does not prevent the contents from tarnishing, but the boxes themselves are beautiful.

Sorry, I'm not sure if they're acid free....I'm using them for recipes, so it's not critical for me. They came with minimal packaging, only a sheet of paper over the top few, and I don't recall if it said that. Not sure I'd use these for photos, if that's why you're asking.

I do not think this would work for you. I used it as a pattern overlay and it suited that purpose . It is durable but I think it would be very hard to work with...and it is probably not acid-free, which is recommended for fabric storage. I hope this helps.
