Routine or planned maintenance work can be carried out as part of exhibition and gallery projects or readying for loan agreements.

Our uniquely structured company which blends conservation engineering with architectural and decorative arts experience allows us to provide comprehensive and far-reaching metals conservation support to a very broad and diverse range of clients.
