Identification

Our solution provides time-effective and safe materials to restore works of art. The time-effectiveness and safety of our approach enables the feasible restoration of large collections worldwide, which are common issues with traditional materials, allowing their transfer to future generations. In other words, our solution is a safe and time-effective way to guarantee the preservation of our Cultural Heritage, with high socio-economic benefits and improved resilience of our society. Our solution uses non-toxic gels or biopolymers, aqueous-based cleaning fluids and biodegradable surfactants, as opposed to traditional petroleum-based cleaning solvents (hexane, mineral spirits). Therefore, our products have enhanced eco-friendliness vs. mainstream alternatives, and easily used by end-users in restoration SMEs/museums/collections. We provide continuous guidance service and training to familiarize stakeholders with these innovative solutions.
