These may include, among others, some physical damages like scratching, piercing, tearing, and environmental ones such as humidity and temperature changes. Proper techniques in packing alleviate most of these risks so the artwork reaches the destination in pristine condition itself. Each shipment assumes special care at Asian Tigers Group, which underscores even more the essence of specialized packing methods for such a valuable painting.<\/span><\/p><p><b>Preparing the Painting for Packing<\/b><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before any packing, it is important to prepare the painting properly, including:<\/span><\/p><ol><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cleaning: Ensure that the surface of the painting and its frame are free from dust or other debris using a soft, dry cloth gently wiped across the surface.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Inspection: Check the condition of the frame or any existing damage, or weak points on the painting itself. For insurance purposes, a photo-documentation of the condition of the painting is also advisable<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Protective Covering: Wrap the painting with acid-free tissue paper or glassine paper to protect against scratches and abrasions. This first layer protects the surface from dirt and water.<\/span><\/li><\/ol><p><b>Packing Materials and Techniques<\/b><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Good packing material ensures that there is protection for the painting. In the process, Asian Tigers Group uses the following items:<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; Acid-Free Tissue Paper or Glassine Paper: wrapping the painting<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; Bubble Wrap: cushion and shock absorption<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; Corner Protectors: edge and corner protection for the frame<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211; Custom-Built Crates: protection during transit<\/span><\/p><p><b>Step-by-Step Packing Process<\/b><\/p><ol><li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Wrap the Painting: Acid-free tissue or glassine paper is used to cover the painting, immediately followed by a tight bubble wrap. The bubbles should always face outwards so that no impressions of any kind are made on the painting surface. Apply multiple layers of bubble wrap for extra cushioning.<\/span><\/li><\/ol><ol start=\"2\"><li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Corner Protection: Apply corner protectors on all four corners of the frame. They have to be made with foam or cardboard and would assuage any damage in case of impacts.<\/span><\/li><\/ol><ol start=\"3\"><li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Custom Crating: Asian Tigers Group advises that any painting of value should be packaged in a custom-built wooden-cased crate made to the dimensions of the painting. The crate must be constructed to dimensions that provide a close fit, allowing little or no movement during transit. The inside of the crate should be lined with foam or some other cushioning material that can absorb shocks and vibration.<\/span><\/li><\/ol><ol start=\"4\"><li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Crate Sealing: Once the painting is properly set inside the crate, seal it with screws or nails. Clearly mark handling instructions on the wooden crate, such as &#8220;Fragile&#8221; and &#8220;This Side Up,&#8221; so that the movers realize whatever is inside is of a sensitive nature.<\/span><\/li><\/ol><p><b>Insurance and Documentation<\/b><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With such a premium value to a painting, inaugurating comprehensive insurance coverage is worth your money. The Asian Tigers Group can help arrange an insurance policy to compensate for damages that may occur in the move. Another equally important thing is maintaining proper documentation inclusive of photographs and any minute details about the condition of the painting that might be helpful in case any insurance claim needs to be made.<\/span><\/p><p><b>Conclusion<\/b><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/asiantigersgroup.com\/indonesia\/\">International moving<\/a> of a high-valued painting is skilled work that requires extra special care.
