Sustainability Encompasses More than Just Creating Quality Products . . . Spacesaver creates products that inspire smarter, more responsible uses of

space. It is a commitment to protect and give back to our local and global community through environmentally friendly manufacturing practices and

corporate stewardship. At Spacesaver Corporation we respect the environment and strive to preserve the availability of natural resources for future

Collection care. Arguably the single-most important undertaking for museums both large and small. As collections continue to grow, efficient storage

space and optimum convenience and control over artifacts have become primary needs in today’s preservation strategies.

At Spacesaver, we fully recognize that the most significant factors influencing your choice in storage systems are: conservation, preservation and

security. To that end, we’ve partnered with Delta Designs Ltd. to offer you a single source for all your storage needs. With our combined industry

knowledge and expansive product offering, you won’t find a more effective provider of collection-care systems.

Protect. Preserve.

[2][2] Mobile Storage

MuseuM | MobILE STorAgE

As artifact contributions continue to grow, viable storage space suddenly

seems as priceless as the collections you covet. Adding on to existing

structures, expanding to other nonworking areas, or even leasing off-site

storage are all viable options; however, each presents its own set of

drawbacks and challenges. That is why we developed space conservation,

Spacesaver’s innovative approach to solving storage needs.

As the innovator of high-density mobile storage systems (HDMS) for museums and other archival

storage, we’re helping to utilize millions of square feet of available floor space by taking advantage of

nonproductive, fixed-aisle space used in traditional stationary-storage applications. With a Spacesaver

mobile storage system, the last thing you’ll need to worry about is turning away additional artifacts for lack

of space.

Large fossiLs can be safeLy stored in custom designed Hdms systems to accommodate oversized artifacts.

[4][4] Shelving Storage

MuseuM | SHELvIng STorAgE

The inherent flexibility of our museum storage systems allows for

custom-designed units to be built to the collection curator’s or manager’s

specific requirements. The overall dimensions and layout of each system will

depend on: the size, shape and weight of the objects being stored, access and

retrieval frequency, type of housing configured into the mobile storage system,

existing architectural constraints and security concerns.

The nature of the stored material in your collection bears significantly

on the storage housing used and the final configuration of the overall

system design. Each storage component offers its own form of

protection to help guard against environmental factors.
