Supreme Pictures provides museum-quality conservation framing services designed to protect and preserve irreplaceable artwork, family photos, and sports memorabilia for residents in Mississauga, Brampton, and the Greater Toronto Area (GTA).
This archival method focuses on long-term stability through several key components:
- Materials: The process uses 100 percent rag cotton or acid-free mats (pH 7.5-8.5), UV-protective glazing that blocks 99 percent of harmful rays, and stable, pH-neutral backings to prevent yellowing and degradation.
- Core Principles: Services adhere to museum standards of minimal intervention and reversibility. This includes using Japanese paper and wheat starch paste for hinging rather than rigid metal points, allowing items to be safely removed without damage.
- Specialized Techniques: For delicate items like sports jerseys, Supreme Pictures uses shadow box depth and careful pinning to maintain fabric integrity. For paper works, spacers are used to ensure the art does not touch the glazing directly.
With over 20 years of expertise, Supreme Pictures offers a streamlined online process where customers can upload images, preview designs digitally, and select custom mouldings before the items are handcrafted in their local workshop and delivered to the customer’s doorstep.
