About the business

ICS We conservators conserve or restore your artworks, antiques, artefacts or other objects of cultural or heritage significance. We advise on the care and management of your cultural or historic collections. We assess the condition of cultural items or heritage places, and make recommendations for conservation, repair or maintenance. We provide practical solutions to complex conservation challenges. We work as conservators, consultants or contractors, depending on the particular needs of our clients. MATERIALS CONSERVATION The professional conservators in our Materials Conservation Division undertake hands-on conservation treatment of your objects, textiles, paintings, artworks, furniture, photographs, sculptures, ethnographic metal and stone artefacts, archaeological material, monuments, memorials or building finishes, either in our conservation studios, or on site. Our conservation treatments vary from preventive conservation approaches managing the environmental conditions for an object to stabilisation, reconstruction, restoration or museum-grade conservation. We clean, repair, mend, consolidate, patch, infill, refinish, and remove stains from artworks, artifacts or antiques; we also frame, mount, wrap, store, relocate, and rehang as appropriate.
