2026-02-08

At Orientdig, we specialize in the secure acquisition and global transportation of antique artifacts and cultural relics. Our meticulously crafted packaging and protection protocols are designed to safeguard history's fragility across continents.

Our Multi-Layered Packaging Methodology

Each item undergoes a customized, multi-stage process tailored to its material, age, fragility, and destination requirements.

Stage 1: Initial Assessment & Isolation

Every artifact is first professionally assessed. It is then gently cleanedclimate-controlled environment

Stage 2: Primary Cushioning & Immobilization

The item is immobilized using custom-cut, acid-free foam cradlesoft silicone padding. This prevents any micro-movement inside the primary container. Fragile elements are separately supported.

Stage 3: Custom-Built Housing

A rigid, double-walled inner box is constructed to exact dimensions. This box is then suspended within a larger outer crate using high-density shock-absorbent isolators, creating a "box-in-a-box" system crucial for impact resistance.

Advanced Protection Technology

Desiccant packets and humidity indicators are sealed within the inner chamber. For sensitive items, custom vacuum-sealed humidity barriers
