Carpentry & Packaging

Integrated carpentry workshop

Packaging a work of art is an art in itself!

LP ART has itsown in-house carpentry workshops, and has developed genuine expertise in the design of wooden crates and customized protection. This expertise enables us to offer tailor-made protection solutions.

 

Various techniques and packing materials can be used: everything depends on the work itself, its fragility, its material, its size, the distance to be covered, potential climatic conditions on the way...

Our team of layetier-emballeur will recommend the type of crate and interior protection best suited to guarantee the integrity of the work entrusted to us during transport and handling operations.

 

The technical solution proposed will also depend on your budget, your deadline and the final destination of the work to be installed, as well as its route.

 

Questions we invite you to ask :

- What's the budget for a single-use crate?

- Is our exhibition budget compatible with the packaging standards recommended by lending museums?

We can then help you find the most suitable packaging at the best price, depending on the work and the chosen mode of transport.

As the range of technical solutions is very wide, and in the absence of an absolute recipe, we propose an analysis grid. It will help you make the right decision.

Case-making and CSR commitment

At LP ART, we are committed to a sustainable approach to the design of our packing and transport crates, offering optimum protection for works of art while respecting the environment.

 

For our Innovation, Methods and QSE Department, it's essential that each new case we create is conceived within a global sustainable development approach.

1. Research into Eco-Packaging Solutions: our engineering team is constantly exploring alternative materials with a low carbon footprint, while validating their properties, to ensure the solidity of our cases.

2. Proposal for reusable crates: Wherever possible, we recommend the use of reusable crates for certain art transfers. This reduces costs and promotes an ecological approach by limiting wood consumption.

3. Responsible waste management: We have introduced a policy of sorting, recycling and recovering case components (wood, foam, handles, screws, etc.), thus helping to preserve the environment and reduce waste.

Case-making and CSR innovation

For LP ART, it's essential to design each new crate with sustainability in mind.
 

Our Innovation, Methods and QSE Department provides our customers with an engineering department in charge of researching eco-packaging solutions for crates. Our team is constantly seeking to source new alternative materials with a low carbon footprint, while testing the properties of each to guarantee the necessary strength and integrity of our crates.

In addition, whenever possible, we offer our customers the option of using reusable crates for the transfer of certain works of art: over and above the lower budget, this allows them to take part in an environmentally-friendly approach by limiting wood consumption.

We have also set up a waste management system to sort, recycle and recycle each component of the crates: wood, foam, handles, screws and bolts...
