Careful artwork packing is key to the transportation of works of art, and our experts assess the nature and condition of each item, as well as its intended mode of transport, before deciding on the most appropriate solution. A team of fine art packing specialists ensures that we are able to design and fabricate bespoke packaging for the transportation of delicate or otherwise exotic works.
Not everything we are asked to move is of a regular shape, or robust material. We frequently transport intricate and delicate structures, as well as items fabricated from highly sensitive materials that may include fluids, organic matter, ancient fabrics or film stock, for example. Whatever it might be, we can build a case to move it safely.
Our approach to artwork packing and art crating delicate, fragile or unconventional items is to assess each piece carefully for its individual needs. An item may, for example, require refrigeration units or temperature controlled climates, either because of its inherent nature, or because of the temperatures it is likely to experience in transit.
Once the precise needs have been analysed, our art casing solution is then constructed to our bespoke specification. Internal structures and packing made of card, acid free tissue, polythene or other suitable materials are inserted to support carefully identified potential weak spots. Whatever happens, the integrity of the work is preserved.
