Product details

Mobile Archaeological Conservation Laboratory

Product Positioning

Designed for archaeological excavation, field survey and on-site conservation. The mobile laboratory provides immediate stabilization, preliminary cleaning, field analysis and controlled-environment support for newly excavated objects.

Low-oxygen protection, temperature and humidity control, cleaning, research, temporary storage and personnel-support modules can be combined around the site and object types.

Product Overview

Newly excavated objects may deteriorate rapidly when oxygen, temperature, humidity, light, microorganisms and harmful gases change after removal from the burial environment. This system introduces mobile controlled conditions and on-site conservation modules as early as possible.

It supports a continuous workflow from excavation and cleaning through field analysis, interim protection and temporary storage, with optional personnel welfare and safety modules.

On-Site Stabilization Factors

  • Oxygen concentration
  • Temperature
  • Relative humidity
  • Light exposure
  • Microorganisms
  • Harmful gases

Field Conservation Functions

Immediate Protection

Provides controlled space for excavated objects that require oxygen, temperature, humidity or other environmental control.

Cleaning & Preliminary Treatment

A designated work area supports cleaning and basic stabilization before transfer to a fixed laboratory.

Field Analysis & Research

Observation, documentation and project-specific analytical work can be carried out on site.

Temporary Protection & Storage

Controlled interim storage bridges the workflow between excavation and the permanent conservation facility.

Controlled Environment Support

Control factorPrimary role
Oxygen concentrationImmediate stabilization for excavated objects requiring low-oxygen protection
TemperatureReduces the effect of rapid temperature change on sensitive objects
Relative humidityReduces deterioration risk caused by rapid moisture change
LightProvides controlled illumination for light-sensitive materials
MicroorganismsSupports field workflows intended to reduce microorganism-related risks
Harmful gasesControls or reduces harmful-gas exposure according to project conditions

Modular Laboratory Structure

The mobile laboratory can be configured in modules according to the archaeological site, object types and project workflow, including:

  • Immediate low-oxygen protection module
  • Temperature and humidity control module
  • Object cleaning and preliminary-treatment work area
  • On-site analysis and research area
  • Temporary protection and storage area
  • Personnel welfare module
  • Personnel health and safety module

The modules can be combined according to project scale, transportation conditions and available site space.
