Museum & Art Gallery

Museums and art galleries often have vast collections of artefacts and artworks, which continue to grow. Creating adequate storage space is a constant challenge for curators. This is further complicated by the imperative to preserve fragile and delicate items. At Dexion, we recognise the crucial importance of preserving historical arts for future generations.

THE ART OF SAFEKEEPING

Dexion’s Collections range of storage systems is designed to display, protect, and preserve the nation’s treasured collections.

Museums and art galleries need to accommodate artworks of diverse sizes, weights, and distinct storage requirements, creating a constant struggle for institutions with limited space. Limited accessibility and unreliable storage systems pose multiple risks to the preservation of valuable artworks, potentially leading to damage or deterioration in condition.

Racking systems can be integrated with shelving systems for durable and safe art storage. The systems are designed to support the weight of robust and unconventional artworks, while versatile Secure Flat File Cabinets safeguard delicate historical documents. These solutions not only ensure the elevation and protection of pieces but also guard against potential damage from rising water levels. Beyond the primary goal of preservation, these innovative solutions provide curators and custodians with unhindered access, elevating operational standards and enabling the expansion of storage capacity.

Feel confident in your choice with Dexion Commercial products, as they have successfully passed the rigorous evaluation of GECA, a trusted authority in eco-friendly standards. This certification ensures our products are not only better for the environment but also have a lower impact on human health, all while being ethically made.

Enhance Artwork Preservation with Smarter Thinking

Bendigo Art Gallery faced the challenging task of preserving a diverse array of artworks within limited space. Managing everything from delicate paintings to bulky sculptures and historical documents necessitated a storage solution that could ensure both safety and accessibility. Mobile art racking seamlessly integrates nested and unnested configurations, adeptly accommodating various art forms. These mobile racks, coupled with Ultima Longspan Shelving, not only optimised space but also provided sturdy storage for sculptures and bulky items.

The integration of specialised Flat File Cabinets ensured meticulous management of historical documents and unframed artworks, contributing to an organised archival system. Dexion’s Multi Bay Compactus® Unit is a compact yet efficient solution, addressing the challenge of storing small sculptural works without consuming excessive floor space. The successful implementation culminated in an efficient, accessible, and secure storage space, enabling the gallery to house its extensive collection cohesively.
