Soo Turner has worked in the art industry for over 25 years. She decided to develop a reusable art bag to save time when packing art. Teaming up with her artist friend they invented ArtPakk. Today this has become instrumental in changing the art industry as people become more aware about the amount of packaging they throw away. We are now seeing mindsets change and galleries & artists start to use this reusable bag. It's not about money anymore, it is about caring for the environment.
The ArtPakk is a reusable protective bag for art and frames. The product can also be used for storage and removals. These are all industries that still use mountains of bubblewrap.
The ArtPakk is environmentally friendly, both the fabrics used in the bags are non-toxic and are recyclable materials.
Using these bags not only saves time but also rolls of unwanted bubble wrap being used and discarded after one use. The bags are easy to use repeatedly which offers a more ecofriendly alternative.
Constant use of this material is not only harmless to your health, but it does not pollute the environment neither in production nor use.
The bags are reusable to protect your artwork and the environment. The bags have a stitched Velcro seal on the inside of the flap. This makes it easy to re seal again and again whilst also cutting out another non-recyclable product, there is no need to use tapes that stick to the bags and leave a residue and look untidy.
ForPakking as a company have supported The Marine conservation Society through Row Aurora, donating 10 pence of every bag sold during 2019, to help clean up the plastic pollution in our oceans.
We are often asked if our bags come in packets for marketing purposes, that is something we will never do. We will continue to promote that packaging needs to be re-used and there is no need for extra packaging on products.
We are a company that will not see repeat orders from our small business clients, that's how we know our product is doing it's job. They are being used over and over again.
The bags are made up of 3 different layers bonded together, consisting of a 4mm thick polyethylene sandwiched between 2 layers of polypropylene, giving a total of a 6mm consistent protective material.

The middle layer of the bag has a cushioning effect that recovers after pressure. This material is also very strong whilst being very light weight.
The edges are sewn together with strong fabric bindings; this prevents the sides from splitting or the edges of the art works piercing through.
There is no more need for blue edging to protect the edges of your art from knocks.
The inner and outer layers of the bags are made up of polypropylene, which is a nontoxic, lightweight fabric with ph. neutral properties. This is important for the long term protection of storing art. The lining is mold repellent, again another factor that in time can damage art. When shipping artworks the water resistant and mold repellent properties are very important, water damage is irreversible on most art.
The fabric is breathable, soft and exceptionally strong. It has excellent filtration properties which makes it moisture resistant, whilst also being resistant to chemical attacks.
The middle lining of the art bag is actually water proof; water will run off the material. This added together with the outer and inner linings makes the bag water resistant.
The middle layer has the properties to keep the contents warm or cold. This makes the art bag the perfect solution for storing artworks in temperature controlled rooms. This will keep the art at an even temperature, something that can be harmful to certain types of art mediums.
