Heritage Storage & Preventive Conservation Storage
Storing for the future
Vindon's new heritage conservation storage facility for the care of collections has been designed with the help and guidance of leading preservation experts. We provide the most cost-effective, secure, and accessible controlled environment storage for the care of collections available.
Because all organic materials deteriorate over time - and some more quickly than others - there is a growing need for highly stable and secure storage conditions. The Vindon heritage conservation storage facility offers the most stable temperature and humidity possible. Designed to keep future deterioration to a minimum, our heritage storage service, preserves the integrity, both historic and artistic, of artifacts, original materials and film archives thus preventing them from being compromised through restoration or lost forever. Our new purpose-built preventive conservation facility can accommodate thousands of materials, special collections, artifacts and historical records - and Vindon’s inventory management software (VIMS) provides a comprehensive management tool for all your special collections storage room operations.
