SUPPORTING PROJECTS AUSTRALIA-WIDE.
AOLS designs storage holistically, weighing how much needs to be stored, how it will be accessed, and the particular sensitivities of the materials involved. The result is a storage approach suited to the collection rather than a generic shelving solution applied to delicate items.
Collection storage requirements
Material and protection considerations
Understand the collection and access needs
AOLS considers how much needs to be stored, how items need to be accessed, and the particular sensitivities of the materials involved.
Balance density, access and protection
Storage options are weighed so capacity does not come at the expense of safe access or the needs of the collection.
Assess what surrounds the collection
AOLS reviews storage materials and adhesives used nearby, recognising that unsuitable choices can affect sensitive items over time.
With sensitive materials, the storage environment itself matters. AOLS assesses which storage materials are suitable and which are not, and considers the adhesives used around stored items, recognising that the wrong choices nearby can affect what is being preserved. This attention to detail is what separates considered collection storage from ordinary warehousing.
It suits museums, archives, government bodies and other organisations responsible for collections and artefacts that need to be stored safely and remain accessible.
Yes. AOLS works with both high-density and conventional storage systems, designing the approach around the requirements of the collection.
Because the storage environment can affect sensitive materials. AOLS assesses which storage materials are suitable and considers adhesives used nearby as part of designing storage that protects the collection.
