Restoration

Using specialized equipment and expert knowledge, we breathe new life into CRT monitors, restoring both the electronics and picture tubes to their original condition.

Rental

Our diverse selection of over 600 televisions and professional studio monitors provides reliable rental solutions for a variety of uses.

Consulting

In addition to CRT handling, installation, and conservation, we also provide specialized guidance on CRT care.

Video art restoration since 2015

At the heart of our work is the restoration and preservation of CRT-based artworks.
The Colorvac workshop follows an intense restoration process,
with the goal of bringing all components inside the monitor back to like-new condition.
We believe that preserving the original technology is crucial for maintaining the authenticity and cultural value of these works.

Currently, we are the only company in the world able to renew picture tubes.
Almost all types of picture tubes can be restored thanks to our specialized CRT equipment and machinery.

Instead of using old stock parts, we have a variety of methods to preserve the major components inside a TV or monitor ranging from isolation of electronics to newly fabricated high voltage flybacks.
