Museum Storage
For Comprehensive, Convenient Storage of All Artifacts and Other Items, Make Montel’s High-Density Shelving Solutions a Part of Your Museum’s Collection To most people, the word “museum” brings to mind quiet display rooms where people look at works of art hanging on the walls. But, needless to say, the museum world is much more far-ranging. The types of artifacts displayed cover everything from interactive technology to textiles to pottery shards, bones and other archaeological specimens—not to mention paintings, photos and other art works. What that means for museum administrators is that you need storage that covers all the bases. Montel is a past master when it comes to versatile storage solutions that make effective use of limited museum storage areas while facilitating smooth shelving and retrieval. Whether movable or stationary, the products in our range of high-density shelving and filing solutions have been rigorously designed to ensure careful preservation of artifacts of all kinds. To name a couple of excellent examples, our compact, stand-alone ModulArt™. system has pull-out double-sided panels that make it an ideal means of storing many large, flat items such as paintings in a limited space; for objects with irregular heights and widths, our 4-D Wide Span shelving is much more versatile and convenient than regular shelving products. And since we know that running a museum involves more than just the artifacts in your collection, we also have diverse mobile and stationary high-density products for other needs, such as administrative records and IT equipment. These efficiently reduce the square footage taken up by your storage areas, helping to reduce administrative expenses and free up more space for your main activities. Archives, anthropology, art, botany, cartography, entomology, geoscience, mammalogy, ornithology, paleontology, rare books, textiles, wet collections and beyond: Montel is the industry benchmark for all areas of the museum sector.
