Preservation Framing
Made to protect and preserve art for the future.
Preservation framework refers to a series of methods implemented by the framer that promote the long-term health of the artwork being framed. This is achieved by controlling threats, such as humidity, temperature, light, dust, etc.
The aim is to preserve your artwork for years to come. This is done through a series of steps taken including the use of acid-free materials, reversible adhesives, proper spacing, UV-blocking glass or acrylic, and rear dust cover. These time-tested techniques create an environment for your artwork to remain protected.
Ask about the distinct tiers of artwork preservation that is offered.
