Darwin Chambers' Archival Storage Features

We work with a variety of different industries, from insect rearing to pharmaceutical storage, and we manufacture rooms and chambers precisely to a client's needs. When it comes to archival storage of invaluable media and artifacts, Darwin Chambers will work with you to find the perfect settings to preserve them. Our archival storage chambers and rooms are ideal for:

Typically, books, paper, and paintings are stored at 10°C (50°F), 30% RH, while film, photographs, and microfilm are stored at 1.7°C (35°F), 35% RH. However, our rooms and chambers are capable of exceptional temperature control anywhere from 0°C to 21°C (32°F to 70°F). Our archival storage units have precise temperature control within ±0.2ºC and humidity control to within ±1%. Most media do not require humidification to be properly preserved, but we can add that feature for unusual archival storage applications.

In addition to maintaining a stable temperature and keeping the objects safe from dust, light, or water damage, our archival storage chambers will keep your items safe from fires, pollutants, or other man-made threats. All of our archival storage rooms and chambers are compliant with NFPA Codes and Standards, GSA regulations, and NARA Directive 1571.

Additionally, all of our walk-in rooms come with a personnel emergency alarm, with a glow-in-the-dark antimicrobial pull cord that will trigger both an audible and visual alarm. We use LED lights that produce less radiant heat and more light with less energy than fluorescent bulbs, so your media preservation will be as cost-effective as possible. Call Darwin Chambers today at 877-783-6774 to ensure that your artifacts are kept safe as long as you need them to be.
