Insurance
for artservice providers

There are a multitude of service providers contributing to the success of art.

If you require insurance cover as a restorer, an employee in a framing studio or a builder of display cabinets, we’ll offer you made-to-measure individual solutions.

Art financiers are playing an ever-larger role in the workings of the art market – but finance is no good without insurance. Talk to us about it.

Security plays an important part in the conservation and protection of value – and we’ll make sure that you can concentrate on your core business.

Restorers

Fortunately, restorers are not only called upon when a work of art has been damaged. Conservational measures for preserving our cultural heritage are the main focus of their work.

Restorers are liable not only for the assignments that they take on, but also for the valuable artefacts that they have to take into their workshops temporarily.

We have the right insurance solutions for all restorers, collectors and institutions for whom art is a pleasure.

Art financing

We are well connected with leading art financiers who help to make sure that collections can develop with the level of quality they deserve.

Financiers attach importance to safety and the preservation of the works financed by you. We have the right solutions for every individual project.

Security

Security is important for our clients. We know the companies that have the requisite experience and reliability to install and maintain the security systems.

For those companies, too, we have just the kind of insurance concepts that they need. Mistakes can happen wherever people are going about their business. But they should not be allowed to impair a company’s economic substance.

Display-cabinet construction

Objects that consist of small, fragmented parts or have a high and easily marketable value are presented in display cabinets in order to protect them.

Display-cabinet constructors are totally reliant on materials provided by their suppliers. If, despite copious care and attention, something doesn’t quite fit, the consequences can be very conspicuous indeed. We can at least provide you with the right liability insurance.

We offer you solutions.

Philosophy

The quality of our work plays a special part in this process. We want to and can distinguish ourselves only with excellent performance and customer satisfaction.

We endeavour to advise our customers neutrally and in the optimum manner with a high level of expertise. Reliability is seen as something special these days, but we live and breathe it on a daily basis. We always search for the the best and safest solution because we have geared our customer relationships to the long-term.
