Storage Solutions for Museums & Art Galleries

Conservation is the key word where museum repositories are concerned. The valuable and irreplaceable collection should be stored safely and conveniently and be perfectly preserved, to be consulted when necessary.

The ArteStore collection is a new range of painting racks which offers a specific solution for any painting storage need. Our solutions ensure optimum conservation, while being extremely accessible at the same time. We offer three types of pull-out painting racks: ArteStore Terra, ArteStore Penda and ArteStore Rota. A major advantage of pull-out painting frames is that the paintings are easily accessible while efficient use is made of the available space. If you need to view a certain painting, only the paintings in the frames concerned are moved.

ArteStore Static painting frames are available in different sizes, so that they will flushly fit into the available repository space. They offer a cost-efficient storage solution suitable for intensive use such as quarantine storage or art libraries. These racks are also suitable for storage of very large paintings. ArteStore Terra, pull-out painting frames move along rails fixed to the floor, move virtually vibration free and are extremely stable. The dimensions of the wire-mesh walls are closely tailored to the size of the objects and the available space.

ArteStore Penda pull-out painting frames offer all benefits of ArteStore Terra, plus the extra advantage that the floor surface is uninterrupted by rails. This is important if the floor also serves as a transport route. ArtStore Rota painting racks move across the floor on wheels, providing a cost-efficient solution. The extent of vibration depends on the smoothness or roughness of the floor surface. The system is available in standard sizes. Compactus ArtStore Mobile painting frames make optimal use of the available space by using only a single aisle. The mobile frames can be moved individually or in a group creating an aisle wherever necessary, thereby virtually doubling your storage capacity. Compactus ArtStore can be equipped with an electronic powered drive which provides low-vibration movement of the mobiles thanks to ‘soft start’ and ‘soft stop’.

With our new ArteStore painting rack and space-saving Compactus Electro systems you can turn the smallest room into a mega repository. Together with you, we will combine the right storage option, the lay-out of the room and the position of the aisles in such a way that the objects are stored as compactly as possible and protected in an optimum way while each of the objects remains individually accessible.
