Entomology Storage

The utmost in preservation and protection. That’s the value of Spacesaver’s entomology storage systems for museums.

Insect infestations. Dust. Particulates. Ultraviolet light. Vibration. Our entomolgy storage systems guard against any and all threats to your invaluable collections, no matter how diverse.

It starts with our hermetically sealed entomology cabinets, which set the benchmark in preservation and protection. Just some of the protection features include:

• Silicone gasket mechanically held in place to ensure an airtight seal
• Continuous hinges from top to bottom to further eliminate any possible entry points
• Filter vents to allow air or fumigants to circulate within the cabinet – adaptable for activated charcoal filtering
• Smooth-gliding drawers and trays that minimize vibration
• Trays that are easily and safely removed for further study of collections
• Non-reactive, solvent-free, baked polyester powder coating finishes prevent off-gassing

Equally protective are Spacesaver’s Mobile Storage systems. Our Eclipse Powered System™ and Mechanical-Assist units keep collections safe from harm via airtight seals, anti-vibration systems, or any number of unique design features.

And whether it’s mobile storage systems, cabinets, or 4-post shelving with trays, our storage solutions readily adapt to address needs of the collection – and help keep them organized. Place cabinets on mobile carriages. Configure cabinets to accommodate any drawer preference, whether it’s Cornell-style drawers, or any other model. Outfit mobile systems or entomology cabinets with existing cabinets, trays, or drawers. It’s your choice. We’ll make it happen.
