about art & antique packing in Al Maqam
Art and antique packing is specialist handling for paintings, sculptures, heirlooms, and high-value pieces that cannot be replaced. Crews use acid-free materials, custom padding, and rigid boxing to protect surfaces, frames, and finishes from pressure, dust, and movement. This is the careful, deliberate work that irreplaceable items demand.
Paintings get corner protectors and flat boxing, sculptures get bespoke cushioning, and delicate finishes are shielded from contact. For exceptional pieces, custom crating can be arranged. Every item is handled slowly and labelled for the most careful transport, so your valuables arrive exactly as they left.
