Non-Toxic Oddy
Preventive conservation of exhibition objects
Today various different measures are taken to preserve paintings, sculptures and historical works of art and protect them from damage. In order to avoid any damage to exhibition objects, no potential harmful materials should be used.Création Baumann carries out different tests in order to provide conservators and curators with all the necessary information on our fabrics.
Oddy-Test
In the museum sector, the Oddy Test is considered to be one of the most important and well-known procedures to determine corrosiveness. Developed by Andrew Oddy, the Oddy Test involves sealing a fabric sample in a glass vial with a copper, a silver and a lead metal coupon.
Création Baumann tests display and display cabinet fabrics dyed in our own works according to the Green/Thickett method, a further development of the Oddy Test.
