Museums & Art Galleries
At the heart of any cultural institution or museum is its collection. On average, 90 percent of a collection is kept in storage, and managing this can often be a monumental task for its guardian. Undoubtedly, with a multitude of items ranging from small, delicate artifacts to large works of art comes very unique storage needs. Large, diverse collections call for highly adaptable storage space. Rare and delicate pieces require special care. Collections need not only be safe from unauthorized access but also need to be protected from long-term exposure to contaminants. We understand the challenges of managing and storing historical collections and are experts in designing museum storage solutions.
Mobile storage
Configurable museum storage systems can safely and efficiently store items in varying shapes and sizes such as record inventories, archeological artifacts and works of art. These systems can utilize a full range of museum shelving types and can include accessories such as museum cabinets, a variety of drawer types, custom doors, display shelving, etc.
Museum cabinets and shelving
Specially designed museum cabinets can be adapted with fixed compartments, drawers, flat files or adjustable shelving and are widely used for herbarium, art preservation and specimen storage applications. Our adjustable shelving offers strength and absolute flexibility. Shelving/drawer combinations are ideal for situations that call for multiple art storage options and provide interchangeable storage using drawers or shelving in the same range. They can feature specially designed mechanically-fastened silicone seals that assure airtight protection, retaining inside fumigants and keeping out dust and other contaminates.
Asset tracking
Our asset tracking systems with bar code technology provide curators with the piece of mind in knowing that any item, at any time, can be tracked quickly and precisely to maintain integrity of their collections and protect their assets.
Whether your collection consists of entomology specimens, archeological artifacts or rare paintings – your assets are important. We design museum storage solutions that ensure collections are well protected and easily accessed when needed.
