APACHE - Active & intelligent PAckaging materials and display cases as a tool for preventive conservation of Cultural HEritage

Most of the cultural heritage objects hosted by museums are often stored in unsuitable climatic conditions. APACHE will develop cutting-edge technology to control and prevent the degradation of this heritage.

Most of the cultural heritage objects hosted by museums are often stored in unsuitable climatic conditions. APACHE will develop cutting-edge technology to control and prevent the degradation of this heritage. The new approach is based on three pillars: 1) advanced sensing and absorption materials to control the artifact environment; 2) modeling to define the degradation threshold and discriminate between the need for prevention or corrective conservation; 3) remote control of the stress factors of works of art. The unique combination of these pillars will reduce the costs of a new generation of technologies for the preservation of museum art objects to the lowest possible level. Specifically, the CNR-ISM will take care of the development of environmental sensors for technological showcases.
