BBA recently completed a complex and meticulous operation involving the shipping and re-packing of a valuable oil on canvas painting from Bordum/Türkiye to Puket/Thailand. The painting was initially picked up from Bodrum, Turkey, a location known for its rich cultural heritage and beautiful landscapes. Given the painting’s significance and value, the operation required the highest level of care and professionalism.
Secure Pickup and Transport
The journey began with the safe pickup of the painting from Bodrum. Understanding the delicate nature of transporting fine art, BBA utilized a private van, ensuring the painting was handled with the utmost care during its journey to Istanbul. The decision to use a private van was strategic, aimed at minimizing risks and ensuring the painting was shielded from potential damage during transit.
Re-Packing in Istanbul
Upon arrival in Istanbul, the painting was re-packed following international art shipping standards. This step was crucial in preparing the artwork for its long journey to Phuket, Thailand. BBA’s team, experienced in handling high-value art pieces, used specialized materials to protect the canvas from environmental factors, physical damage, and any other risks that could arise during international shipping.
The re-packing process included the use of acid-free materials, cushioning, and a custom-built crate designed to fit the dimensions of the painting perfectly. This attention to detail ensured that the painting was not only secure but also maintained its pristine condition throughout the shipping process.
International Shipping to Phuket
Once securely packed, the painting was shipped from Istanbul to Phuket, Thailand, as part of a door-to-door service. BBA coordinated closely with its global partners to ensure seamless transitions between each stage of the journey. The shipment was tracked continuously, and every precaution was taken to avoid delays or complications.
BBA’s network of partners, who are experts in international art logistics, played a critical role in this stage. They ensured that the painting passed through customs smoothly and was delivered on time, maintaining the integrity and security of the artwork.
Conclusion
BBA’s successful handling of this oil on canvas shipping and re-packing operation underscores the company’s expertise in art logistics. From the careful pickup in Bodrum to the final delivery in Phuket, every step was executed with precision and a commitment to excellence. This operation highlights BBA’s ability to manage complex, high-value shipments on a global scale, ensuring that valuable art pieces are preserved and protected throughout their journey.
