Our most frequent clients come from abroad. Most often from the United States and Canada. For this reason, the packaging of artworks and the transport of artworks play an extremely important role in our daily work. Sculptures and paintings must arrive at their destination in perfect condition. Without damage. Without compromise. In addition to works from our gallery selection, we regularly organise the shipment of pieces created in our workshop.
The entire process begins with administration. The first step is the preparation of the required documentation. These documents are issued by the Ministry of Culture and Media. This provides official permission for the export of artworks. This step is essential to ensure that the transport of artworks is legal and secure. Especially when shipping outside the European Union.
The next step is the production of custom-made crates. Every sculpture and every artwork requires an individual solution. Wooden crates are made precisely to the dimensions of each piece. The wood used must be heat-treated at high temperatures. This process eliminates any possible insects and microorganisms that the wood may contain. Such standards are prescribed by customs regulations. Their purpose is to prevent the transfer of harmful organisms between countries.
Artwork packaging is carried out in several stages. Each layer has a specific function. First, sculptures or artworks are wrapped in bubble wrap. This is a professional protective material designed to absorb impacts. A layer of packing paper follows. This layer protects the surface of the artwork and prevents friction.
Once the artwork is fully protected, it is placed inside the wooden crate. The interior of the crate is lined with five centimetres of polystyrene on all sides. The sculpture or artwork is positioned centrally. It does not touch the crate walls. It is surrounded by soft materials that prevent movement and damage during transport.
This system of artwork protection meets the requirements of insurance companies. At the same time, it ensures maximum safety during long-distance transport. Whether by road, air, or a combined mode of transport.
Professional packaging and organised transport of artworks are essential for client satisfaction. Our clients receive their sculptures and artworks in perfect condition. The trust they place in us confirms that our protection system is reliable. And that professionalism is always evident in the final result.
