In addition to object-, art-, furniture-, textile- and paper conservation, the Conservation unit possesses the expertise, large-capacity facilities and digital equipment for conducting X-ray research.
The Collections and Conservation Centre also does material analyses with its XRF and FTIR devices.
Finds from shipwrecks and other wet organic material can be handled with the facility’s vacuum freeze dryer, which has a 5-metre-long chamber.
The availability and scheduling of conservation services
Please note that the availability and scheduling of conservation services is influenced by the personnel’s other work with the National Museum’s own exhibition and research projects.
