Transport of
art works and
valuable objects
During a transfer in France or abroad, the transport stage is always the most risky for a work. During the move, the work may suffer material damage but also risks of theft or loss, with irreparable consequences.
This is why our specialised teams carefully study the most suitable means of transport for each situation. They support you from the preparation of the crates and their loading, to transport in a dedicated and geolocated vehicle and then to unloading.
Throughout your project, a project coordination unit will support you and keep you informed of the progress of the transport to the final destination for complete peace of mind.
Road transport
The transportation of art works across France requires a high level of care, discretion and skill. This comprises not only the transportation itself, but also the services associated with preparation, loading/unloading and delivery.
Mastery of packing, handling/lifting and hanging techniques is essential.
Shipping
Do you need a specialist in the international transport of art works? The most economical solution, the transport of works by vessel, is perfectly adapted to heavy and not very fragile objects and may be the most appropriate solution.
Our team of professionals can assess whether shipping by sea is the right solution for your needs.
Air transport
Air transport is often the preferred solution when you want to send your works internationally. It is also the ideal option if you want to send your works rapidly. Thanks to the shorter transit times and increased control possibilities, this mode of transport offers an undeniable advantage in terms of security.
Our experts will support you throughout your project.
International transport
To carry out specialist transport of art works throughout the world, rigour, logistical organisation and mastery of administrative formalities are the key words.
