Fine Art Packing & Crating Solutions
EAS offers all levels of fine art packing for your artwork. From simple soft-packing to custom foam-core boxes, we can provide safe and secure protection that covers your needs and your budget. We have a range of archival products and industry standard techniques that we use to ensure the highest level of care is taken when packing your items.
EAS also offers custom crating solutions. We can construct high-quality crates that are carefully crafted to fit your items, whether they are being shipped, stored or transported to a museum. Our custom crates are constructed from high-quality plywood and can be custom made to suit your art piece.

If transporting your art in one of our shuttle vans or trucks, we can provide simple poly (plastic) wrapping as well as bubble and card covering.

If you have fragile items being shipped via common carrier, let us help! We will pack your item based on its needs. All items will be double wrapped in bubble and card and packed within a standard or custom made cardboard box. We will also provide glass protection, non-stick plastic for paintings and additional foam padding for delicate items.

EAS does custom slipcasing on framed pieces that will need transported or stored.

For delicate canvases, EAS can provide custom-made shadowboxes so that the canvas face will stay protected.

For multiple items being crated, EAS can provide custom packing using a variety of materials depending on your needs. We have both archival and non-archival materials that we may utilize for intricate packing jobs.

For items in need of simple but strong protection, a travel frame or a slat crate is a great option for both transport or storage.

Custom enclosed crates offer superior protection for your delicate items. Our standard art crate can be made for one-way travel or for multi-purpose use. The standard art crate is perfect for many applications including long-term storage, transport, and traveling exhibitions. These crates can also be modified using poly sheeting and/or Tyvek for moisture control as well as other options as needed.
-
The museum level crate includes all of the same properties as a standard art crate with a few key additions. These crates utilize additional insulation packing, gasket seals, exterior weather-proofing, and bolt closures for secure lid closure. Additionally, they can be lined for added moisture control and can be modified for any and all safety or security measures.
