Exhibition & Installation


We offer a comprehensive end-to-end artwork installation service for institutions, artists, collectors, and private clients.

Our process begins with a detailed consultation to determine the ideal placement, ensuring the work complements and enhances its environment.

During installation, we handle each piece with care, using high-quality, discreet fittings to securely display the artwork without distraction.

Artwork Crating


Our approach to crate construction and artwork packaging is grounded in years of experience working with collection-based institutions and artists. We adhere to the exacting standards expected by conservators, registrars, and collection managers for art packaging and transport. Our team assesses artworks on-site and recommends the best crate options, ranging from museum-standard crates to light-duty courier crates.

All crates are ISPM-15 compliant, ensuring
smooth customs processing. Designed to artwork specifications, they provide safe travel and can also serve as secure storage upon arrival. We specialize in both structural laminated plywood and honeycomb toughened cardboard crates, in both heavy and light-duty versions.
