Conservation fundamentals
• Packaging is all about preventative conservation
• Causes of damage– Light – Temperature and Humidity– Pests including - insects, rodents and mould– Pollutants– Natural disasters– Humans
![Page 10: National Services Te Paerangi](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022110213/56814bd6550346895db8afd6/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Handling
• All objects are important.• Always keep workstations clean and clear.• Always keep working tools, office and
cleaning equipment separate from objects.• Never allow food, drink or cigarettes near
objects or in collection areas at any times. Be especially careful about keeping tāonga Māori out of the staff room or areas where food is eaten or prepared.
![Page 11: National Services Te Paerangi](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022110213/56814bd6550346895db8afd6/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
• When moving an object always plan the route ensuring that the pathway there is clear and that the table/shelf/palette/ etc is prepared to receive the object. There should be a suitable amount of space and supports for the object when needed.
• Never touch an object unless you have the authority or a reason to do so.
![Page 12: National Services Te Paerangi](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022110213/56814bd6550346895db8afd6/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
![Page 13: National Services Te Paerangi](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022110213/56814bd6550346895db8afd6/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
• Wear clean white cotton or latex gloves or have scrupulously clean hands or use acid-free paper corners to lift objects.
• Stop and think before handling an object. • Inspect the object for possible weaknesses
before you touch it. • Never pick up an object by its handle. • Never carry heavy or awkward objects by
yourself.
![Page 14: National Services Te Paerangi](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022110213/56814bd6550346895db8afd6/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
• Carry one object at a time or use trays/boxes/trolleys.
![Page 15: National Services Te Paerangi](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022110213/56814bd6550346895db8afd6/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
• Two hands are better than one. Carry small objects with one hand and support the outside or top with the other hand.
• Large and awkward objects should be moved by two people, regardless of the weight involved.
![Page 16: National Services Te Paerangi](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022110213/56814bd6550346895db8afd6/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
• Discuss lifting and movement with any other people involved before touching the object and while moving it
• Do not hurry when handling objects.
• Never carry framed works by the picture wire, the top of the frame or the stretcher. Carry them with one hand beneath and one hand at the side of the frame.
![Page 17: National Services Te Paerangi](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022110213/56814bd6550346895db8afd6/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
• Always handle photographic material and unframed prints from the edges or the back. Do not touch the image.
• When handling leather or plastic objects do not force them to flex and bend into a different shape.
• Don’t forget to record the relocation of moved objects.
![Page 18: National Services Te Paerangi](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022110213/56814bd6550346895db8afd6/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Handling Natural History Specimens
• Always prepare yourself properly in advance.
• Wear disposable nitrile (the blue ones) gloves. Dispose of these as soon as you take them off. Never reuse gloves, even after only five minutes.
• Wear an approved dust mask and a dustcoat.
• Never do any intensive work in a confined place or without adequate ventilation.
• Clean dustcoat each week.

Considerations for packing• Optimum protection
• Affordable cost
• Fragility of the object
• Type and composition of object
• Risk assessment
• Determine the need is it for exhibition, loan, travel or storage
![Page 26: National Services Te Paerangi](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022110213/56814bd6550346895db8afd6/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
• What type of materials to use
• How much time you have• Prepare• Plan with repacking in mind
![Page 27: National Services Te Paerangi](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022110213/56814bd6550346895db8afd6/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
• Make it simple and use common sense• If complicated thoroughly document with
instructions, diagrams or photos• Examine – ensure structurally stable• Protect from other objects, materials used
and walls of the packing case• Use materials that do not abrade, scratch or
chemically react with the object• Provide adequate shock absorbing material-
not too, much not too little• Insulation and vapour barriers

Nesting
![Page 68: National Services Te Paerangi](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022110213/56814bd6550346895db8afd6/html5/thumbnails/68.jpg)
Materials Tyvek, PE Foam, Masking tape
EquipmentRuler, Craft knife, Pencil, Butter knife, Hot glue gun
![Page 69: National Services Te Paerangi](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022110213/56814bd6550346895db8afd6/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)
Check the object for fragility, which areas of the object can be load bearing and which cannot.
Select a piece of foam and make sure the foam is clean and with no hard surfaces such as hot glue residue.
Lay masking tape in the general shape of the object. This gives you something to draw on and leave the foam clean.
Draw an outline around the object with pencil only. It can be useful to include voids around the object for ease of object removal. If you do this then locate the voids where appropriate for handling.
![Page 70: National Services Te Paerangi](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022110213/56814bd6550346895db8afd6/html5/thumbnails/70.jpg)
Cut out the silhouette of the object, and scoop out the depth.
Cut a slot about 10mm away from the silhouette.
![Page 71: National Services Te Paerangi](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022110213/56814bd6550346895db8afd6/html5/thumbnails/71.jpg)
Fit a piece of tyvek into the silhouette, tucking the tyvek into the cut slot with a thin blunt object (ruler, butter knife etc). Make sure you use enough material to allow the object to sink into a natural position. You can trial the object in the tyvek cradle before you make your final cuts.
![Page 72: National Services Te Paerangi](https://reader037.vdocuments.mx/reader037/viewer/2022110213/56814bd6550346895db8afd6/html5/thumbnails/72.jpg)
Cut away the excess tyvek from around the silhouette and tuck the remaining edges into the slot.
With a heavy or awkward object you can secure the tyvek by gluing it into the slot with a hot glue gun.
Use a piece (or pieces) of cotton tape to secure the object, tucking the tape into each side. With large or heavy objects use two pieces of tape that tie together.
