Preserve Your Collections with Jamie Briggs Removals & Storage + Conservation Resources Heritage Storage Services
Jamie Briggs Removals + Conservation Resources offers specialised Heritage Storage services meticulously designed to safeguard and provide access to your invaluable historical documents and artifacts. Recognising the profound significance of these irreplaceable items, we are committed to providing a secure, environmentally controlled environment that not only ensures their longevity for future generations but also adheres to the highest industry standards. Our facilities and practices are rigorously maintained to meet and exceed the requirements of BS 4971:2017, the British Standard for the conservation and care of archive and library collections, and BS EN 16893:2018, the European standard for the protection of cultural heritage. This dedication to best practice, coupled with our expertise in archival preservation, allows us to serve as a trusted steward of your valuable collections.
For Heritage Storage we offer the following services:
Optimised Environmental Control: State-of-the-art temperature and humidity management systems, housed within carefully adapted Air Force shelters, maintain ideal conditions for the preservation of a wide range of materials.
Expert Handling and Care: Our team of specialists are trained in archival best practices and employs meticulous handling techniques. We utilise museum-quality packing materials, including acid-free tissue, Plastazote® foam, and Tyvek®, and construct custom cases to provide superior protection during transport and storage, all of these provided by our onsite conservation material supplier, Conservation Resources. Direct handling is minimised through specialised procedures.
Tailored Storage Solutions: We collaborate with you to develop bespoke storage solutions tailored to the specific requirements of your collection, whether it involves specialised shelving, custom crating, or other customised arrangements.
Robust Security Protocols: Your heritage assets are protected by multiple layers of security, including 24/7 surveillance, controlled access, and advanced fire suppression systems.
If your requirements are not listed one of our specialised surveyors will discuss them with you personally
Streamlined Access and Transparent Tracking:
Detailed Cataloguing and Retrieval System: Each artifact is meticulously catalogued and barcoded, enabling precise location tracking down to the shelf level via our secure online portal. This facilitates efficient retrieval and provides complete transparency regarding the status of your collection.
