ArtRatio is a boutique manufacturer of smart glass vitrines to protect and display fragile art, antiques and luxury items.
Our name stems from the Golden Ratio, used by artists, architects, mathematicians and scientists, from Euclid to Da Vinci to Dalí, to emulate the divine proportions found in nature.
ArtRatio aims to combine the beauty of mathematics and art, analysing conservation data in order to reduce risk on fragile collections and to enhance their visibility.
ArtRatio is an Approved Service Provider at LAPADA, the association of art and antiques dealers in London. ArtRatio were the 2017 co-sponsors of the LAPADA Conference held in Westminster Palace, London.
ArtRatio is a corporate member of the Museums Association and 2016 co-sponsors of the MA Conference in Glasgow.
ArtRatio is a sponsor of the UK Institute of Conservation and contributes to the ICON Policy Advisory Panel, lobbying the UK government on issues central to the art world.
ArtRatio partners with the SEAHA Centre for Doctoral Training in Science and Engineering in Arts, Heritage and Archaeology, backed by UCL, Oxford and Brighton universities.

Our name points to the need to discover the ‘indices and ratios’ underlying art collections, much as we look for indices and ratios related to a financial security. This data helps our customers to decide whether to display, conserve, secure or store the items, based on the risk that the collection is being exposed to and the popularity of the items on display.
