ROKBOX

ROKBOX is redefining art shipping by eradicating packaging waste, and lowering carbon emissions and costs. In the fast-paced, high volume, high value art world of today, the movement of artworks is more global and challenging than ever. Artworks travel to and from a vast network of storage facilities, exhibitions, art fairs, auctions, collections and galleries. A single artwork might move through three or four continents in just a few months in order for it to be shown to an ever expanding audience. ROKBOX was founded to: - Protect artworks better than ever before; - Create a truly reusable artwork crate in order to reduce environmental impact; - Combine simplicity and versatility through innovative design. Over the past four years we have researched and analysed what the best methods of protecting art are; what can and does go wrong when artwork packaging fails; and what materials are the most reliable for the task: lightweight, inert, strong, durable and waterproof. Armed with this knowledge we have worked with an award winning design team to produce ROKBOX, which we are excited to be launching commercially in late 2018. The patented ROKBOX design is based upon the principle of securing an artwork to a rigid Floating Panel - cushioned in all axes from shock, impact and vibration. ROKBOX hardware secures artworks to the panel without the need of tools, reducing scope for human error and saving time. Engineered for multiple reuse and to accommodate two dimensional artworks of different sizes without the need for internal refit, ROKBOX offers economic and environmental efficiencies. ROKBOX is a new gold standard in artwork protection for the storage and transportation of two dimensional artworks.
