Everything Under
One Roof
Special services for Berlin-based galleries. Do you need expert assistance with your everyday activities? We know the business inside out and can respond to your every need. Galleries are always producing new exhibitions and need a swift changeover between shows – art needs to be taken down, dismantled and packed, and walls need to be put up, repaired and repainted in time for the next exhibition – all with the greatest care and in the shortest time. With the clock ticking, we help you to meet your deadlines safely.

Art Needs Specialized Crates
Every work of art is unique. With its own shape and quality, it required bespoke protection. The correct approach to packaging also depends on the method of transport. We select and provide the right box or packaging to meet your individual needs.
Gallery Premium Crates
Designed for repeated use, these high-quality crates are highly popular amongst collectors and those lending their works of art. With their attractive shape, these crates are made to measure (dimensions of the artwork required). Made of planed coreboard and reinforced with caulking strips, they come fitted with the requisite amount of Nopa foam to fit to the shape of your artwork.
Gallery Standard Crates
The stable plywood construction functions as effective yet low-cost packaging for a range of different works of art, and are often used for one-way shipments or price-sensitive projects. Padded with foam inside, these crates are made to measure (dimensions of the artwork required).
Transport Frames
These transport frames protect the surface of works of art from contact damage. Used primarily for land transport, they are not strong enough on their own for air freight and transport by sea. The transport frames are made to measure (dimensions of the artwork required).
Climate-controlled Crates
This crate is made to museum standards. Complying with all standards for temperature and moisture conservation, they are made to measure (we will visit to measure up).
No Two Pieces of Art are the Same.
Experience and knowledge are the twin keys to working with art. We are happy to provide expert advice regarding the best hanging, set-up and installation of your art.
