NYC Fine Art Storage Company Mana Contemporary Protects Fine Works of Art with Their Custom Crating Service

Each piece of artwork is unique the crating services used to transport or store these items should be entrusted to professionals. Mana Contemporary offers custom built museum-grade fine art crates designed to protect art during transit.

New York, NY (I-Newswire) January 19, 2013 - In 2012, Edvard Munch's "The Scream" sold for a record $119.9 million. Although most art collectors don't have pieces of this value, each collector likely finds his or her pieces to be priceless and the same could be said for the artist. When dealing with a work of art, Micha Lang of Mana Contemporary says, one should never expect less than the best when it comes to fine art storage, art crating in NYC or conservation and restoration.

"Each piece of artwork is unique and therefore the crating services used to transport or store these items should be entrusted to professionals," Mr. Lang goes on to say. "Mana Contemporary offers custom built museum-grade fine art crates designed to protect art during transit. The crates can withstand handling and the elements with ease as the latest technology and industry-approved materials are used at every stage. Precious assets are protected and preserved at all times as all crating is done in-house."

Museum-grade materials are used to create crates for any type of artwork, whether it be a work on paper or an intricate sculpture. Oversize works can be accommodated with ease and each crating specialist is fully training in archival packing techniques. Antiques and art make it safely to their final location thanks to the custom frames created and each frame is compliant with International Standards of Phytosanitary Measure (ISPM) 15 and stamped with NELMA approval. This allows for international shipments as well as national ones. Crates are labelled with detailed packing and unpacking instructions also. "Mana Contemporary overlooks no detail when it comes to protecting a client's assets. We treat each as if they were our own," Mr. Lang states.

"Although the main crating facility is located in Jersey City, New Jersey, we assist clients across the globe," Mr. Lang continues. "Fine art transportation can be handled wherever the client is located. Visit www.manafinearts.com to learn more about the art crating service along with the many other services available. Our goal is to provide those associated with the art industry with everything needed to preserve these precious works."
