At Impulse Art Inc., we understand the significance of preserving your valuable documents and awards. Whether it’s a diploma, certificate, or corporate recognition, these items represent important achievements and milestones. Our conservation framing services are designed to protect these precious items, ensuring they remain in pristine condition for generations.

What is Conservation Framing?

Conservation framing, also known as archival framing, is a method of framing that uses materials and techniques specifically designed to protect and preserve artwork and documents. This process involves using acid-free and UV-protective materials to prevent deterioration caused by environmental factors such as light, humidity, and pollutants.

The Importance of Conservation Framing

  1. Protection Against Environmental Damage Documents and awards can be easily damaged by exposure to light, moisture, and air pollutants. Conservation framing provides a barrier against these elements, significantly reducing the risk of fading, yellowing, and other forms of deterioration.
  2. Preservation of Historical and Sentimental Value Items like diplomas, certificates, and awards often carry significant historical and sentimental value. Conservation framing ensures that these items are preserved in their original condition, maintaining their value and significance over time.
  3. Longevity and Durability Using archival-quality materials in the framing process enhances the longevity and durability of your documents. Acid-free mats, UV-protective glass, and high-quality backing materials ensure that your items are protected for years to come.
  4. Aesthetic Enhancement Conservation framing not only protects but also enhances the visual appeal of your documents and awards. Custom frames can be designed to complement the style and importance of each piece, making them a beautiful addition to any space.

Our Conservation Framing Process

At Impulse Art Inc., we follow a meticulous process to ensure the highest level of protection and preservation for your valuable documents and awards.

  1. Assessment and Consultation We begin by assessing the condition and specific requirements of your document or award. During the consultation, we discuss your preferences for frame style, matting, and other design elements.
  2. Selection of Archival Materials We use only the finest archival-quality materials, including acid-free mats, UV-protective glass, and conservation-grade backing boards. These materials are essential for preventing damage and ensuring long-term preservation.
  3. Custom Matting and Framing Our advanced mat cutting technology allows us to create custom mats that perfectly fit and complement your document. The frame is then carefully crafted to enhance the visual appeal while providing robust protection.
  4. UV-Protective Glazing We use UV-protective glass or acrylic to shield your document from harmful ultraviolet rays, which can cause fading and discoloration over time. This glazing also helps to reduce glare, improving the visibility of your framed item.
  5. Assembly and Quality Check Once all components are prepared, we meticulously assemble the frame, ensuring that the document is securely mounted and properly aligned. A thorough quality check is conducted to ensure that the final product meets our high standards of craftsmanship and preservation.
