• Do we recycle our packaging?

  Sending out artworks safely and securely requires considerable packaging. We have a specialist team in place to do this but as yet we have found no way around the excess packaging required to do the job properly. We are of course very aware of the environmental impact and encourage all our clients toreuse or recycle the packaging. Our packing team saves all bubble wrap, foam and cardboard from gallery purchases which may then be re-appropriated to package your orders.
