Conservation Treatments

Photographic albums

Triptych currently specialises in magnetic (sticky backed) photograph albums. These contain a highly acidic adhesive that has been known to degrade photographs. The plastic overlay can also become brittle and shatter.

We carefully remove every item from your album, and can either return them to you as is, or rehouse them in archival sleeves within an archival binder. Pages can be inserted to write information about each of your precious memories without causing indentations or bleed-through to your photographs.
