# ICM UK - Business Description
ICM UK, formerly known as Thermo Lignum Ltd, operates as a specialist conservation treatment provider based in London. The company offers chemical-free pest elimination and biocide removal services specifically designed for protecting art, heritage collections, and valuable cultural objects.
The business utilises proprietary humidity-regulated warm air treatment technology that destroys all life-cycle stages of insect pests without exposing objects to harmful chemicals or noxious gases. This method proves particularly valuable for delicate materials including paper, textiles, carpets, leather, fur, ethnographic pieces, furniture, musical instruments, polychromatic sculptures and paintings.
What distinguishes ICM UK is their conservation-first approach—the technology was designed by conservators for conservators, ensuring object integrity remains paramount throughout treatment. The controlled humidity environment eliminates risk of damage whilst the chemical-free process protects both staff health and environmental wellbeing. The treatment achieves 100% effectiveness against pest infestations with minimal energy consumption and a low carbon footprint.
ICM UK provides flexibility in service delivery through fixed treatment centres in Brussels and London, mobile treatment via their dedicated truck, or temporary installations available for rental, lease, or purchase. This adaptability makes their services accessible to museums, galleries, collectors, conservation studios, and institutions of varying sizes across Europe.
The company's expertise combines scientific rigour with practical heritage conservation knowledge, positioning them as leaders in sustainable pest management for culturally significant collections.
