Preserving Cultural Treasures
When it comes to preserving historical buildings or precious old documents, experts trust GELITA® RESTORATION Gelatin. Its natural elastic binding properties make it the go-to choice for many professional restorers, especially when treating stucco and sculptural works.
GELITA® RESTORATION Gelatin has played a key role in restoring iconic landmarks like the Semper Opera in Dresden, Germany, and the Pont Alexandre III—the longest bridge in Paris.
Restoring delicate paper has unique challenges. Since the 1850s, most paper has been made from wood pulp. Unfortunately, the acid-based wood glue used in these papers becomes brittle over time, putting valuable books at risk of decay.
This is where GELITA® RESTORATION Gelatin comes in. Known as a "natural adhesive," it can restore damaged pages and re-glue them, effectively fixing the colors and content of historical texts. For example, the famous sheet music from Dresden, which was severely damaged by the catastrophic floods of 2002, was fully restored using our gelatin.
