Dynamic Humidity Control for the Protection of Cultural Heritage.
Propadyn® Museart is a dynamic humidity stabiliser developed by the Italian company Propagroup, specifically
for the protection of works of art and cultural heritage objects. Propagroup has more than 50 years of experience
in protective and safety packaging solutions for demanding transport and storage conditions. Drawing on this
expertise, Propadyn® Museart was developed in the company’s own research laboratories as a specialised solution
for museums, collections, exhibitions, storage facilities and the transport of works of art.
The key principle behind Propadyn® Museart is the stabilisation of relative humidity (RH). The material responds
dynamically to changes in the surrounding environment, helping to maintain relative humidity at the desired level.
This reduces short-term fluctuations in humidity and the associated stresses placed on sensitive materials.
Why use Propadyn® Museart in museum display cases?
Fluctuations in relative humidity can cause dimensional changes, deformation and longterm deterioration,
particularly in hygroscopic materials such as wood, paper, parchment, textiles, canvas and composite materials.
When used in display cases, Propadyn® Museart helps to create a more stable microclimate in the immediate
environment of the object, thereby reducing mechanical and chemical stress.
