Archiving

Archive Racking Systems: Designed specifically for the storage of archive boxes, these racking systems can maximise vertical and horizontal space, allowing for high-density storage of documents.

Mezzanine Floors: Create additional storage levels within the same footprint, significantly increasing the storage capacity without the need for building expansions.

Mobile Shelving Units: These systems allow for compact storage by eliminating aisles and can be moved to create access when needed, optimising space and improving accessibility.

Labelling and Cataloguing Systems: Implement clear labelling and cataloguing systems to ensure that archive boxes are easily identifiable and retrievable, reducing time spent searching for documents.

Secure Storage Solutions: Provide lockable shelving units and secure access controls to protect sensitive and confidential documents.

Compliance with Regulations: Ensure that storage solutions meet regulatory requirements for document storage, including fire safety standards and environmental controls.

Customisable Shelving: Adjustable shelving units that can be tailored to accommodate different sizes of archive boxes, making the most efficient use of available space.

Dynamic Storage Solutions: Utilise systems like sliding or rotating shelves to maximise storage density and improve retrieval efficiency.

Climate-Controlled Storage: Ensure that archive boxes are stored in a controlled environment to protect against humidity, temperature fluctuations, and pests that could damage documents.

Dust and Light Protection: Implement storage solutions that protect archive boxes from dust and light exposure, preserving the integrity of the documents.

Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems (ASRS): Incorporate automation to speed up the retrieval process, reduce manual labor, and minimise errors.

Efficient Layout Design: Design storage layouts that optimise workflow, ensuring that frequently accessed documents are easily reachable.

Modular Storage Solutions: Implement modular racking and shelving that can be easily expanded as the volume of archived documents grows.

Flexible Systems: Offer storage solutions that can be reconfigured or relocated as needed to adapt to changing storage requirements.

Vertical Lift Modules (VLMs): Ideal for high-density storage in a small footprint, VLMs can store archive boxes vertically and retrieve them automatically.

Long-Term Preservation Solutions: Use archival-quality materials and storage methods designed for long-term preservation of important documents.

Regular Inspections and Maintenance: Conduct regular inspections and maintenance of storage systems to ensure they remain safe, secure, and in good working order.

Racking Protection: Install barriers and guards to protect racking systems from damage, ensuring the safety and stability of stored boxes.

Optimised Storage Solutions: Design cost-effective storage solutions that maximise space and efficiency while minimising operational costs.

Energy-Efficient Systems: Implement energy-efficient lighting and climate control systems to reduce operational costs.
