Starter Service Kit

A concrete product with a clear subject and real-world context.

This kit is built for the first-time client who wants to assess the condition of a single manuscript or small collection without committing to a full-scale treatment. It includes a preliminary non-destructive optical scan, a cellulose density report, and a written summary of observable damage — tears, stains, mold spots, or binding weakness.

The result is a clear, itemized condition note that you can use to decide on next steps. No vague estimates, no upselling. Just a factual record of what the paper looks like under spectroscopy and what the fibers reveal.

What’s included

  • Non-destructive optical spectroscopy scan of up to 10 folios
  • Cellulose density map with oxidation markers
  • Written condition note with photographs of problem areas
  • Recommendation for storage or further treatment

Suitable for single volumes, letters, or small bundles. Turnaround time is 5–7 business days.

Why this matters

Many private owners and small libraries hold items that have never been formally assessed. Without a baseline, deterioration can go unnoticed until it becomes irreversible. The Starter Service Kit gives you a low-barrier entry point to understand what you have and what it needs — before making a larger commitment.
