Lascaux : Etching Mediums

The Lascaux acrylic resist etching system (ARE) consists of solvent-free, versatile and reliable products, all of them eco-friendly and economical.

The growing awareness of the damage caused to artists' health and the environment by the use of toxic art materials has led intaglio printmakers to search for safer ways of working. Lascaux, working in collaboration with the printmakers Robert Adam and Carol Robertson, have developed a complete range of safer modern materials which can be used to replace the traditional acid resists.
