Darwin Chambers' Archival Storage Features | Charleston, SC Archival Storage We design and manufacture walk-in rooms and environmental chambers for numerous different fields, from insect rearing to pharmaceutical storage, and all of our units are made precisely for a client's requirements. With regards to archival storage of priceless media and artifacts, Darwin Chambers will work with you to find the perfect configurations to preserve them. Our archival storage chambers and rooms are perfect for: Rare books and other paper documents: Books react strongly to temperature and humidity changes, and should be maintained at stable temperatures. Outside contaminants such as dust, sunlight, or insects can harm old books. Humidity of over 35%RH can lead to mold growth on paper. Archival storage with Darwin Chambers will ensure your books remain in great condition. Photographs: Photographs must also be maintained at consistent temperatures and away from outside impurities. While there are paper and plastic cases that may protect photographs from mold and sunlight, both have their disadvantages. Paintings: Both wood and canvas paintings crack or distort when subjected to temperature or humidity shifts. Light and dust can also affect the paint. Films and microfiche: Films are vulnerable to a type of decay known as "vinegar syndrome" if stored inadequately. The Image Permanence Institute recommends storing specific kind of film at freezing or near-freezing temperatures, which which makes Darwin Chambers's versatile line of archival storage units the perfect fit for your film storing needs. Typically, books, paper, and paintings are preserved at 10°C (50°F), 30% RH, while film, photographs, and microfilm are kept at 1.7°C (35°F), 35% RH.
