Conserving the past, reducing your footprint

Applications Museum Ethnology

What would the world be without its distinctive cultures, both in the past, the present and the future? Preserving the knowledge of the past in a world in which natural resources and space are scarce assets makes it vital to think about efficient use of every single m2 available. Did you know that you could reduce your collection storage space by up to 75%? Less space used for storage means more room for your collection, a decrease in costs per m2 and a substantial positive impact on your footprint.

Visible storage – open up!

Typically up to 90% of a collection is stored in the depot. Smart space creating storage systems enable seamless integration of secure, sustainable storage with increased visibility of the collection. A creative way to show more objects, enabling the public to also discover the hidden treasures of every collection.
