Wet Collections Storage

Whether housed in glass jars or steel tanks, Filefax’s wet-collection storage systems keep fluid-preserved specimens safe and secure – no matter the size, shape, or number of containers involved.

And since each museum, wet collection and storage situation is unique, we offer a host of adaptable, creative solutions to match.

Conserve space – and protect even the largest collections – with Filefax’s Mobile Storage systems. Choose from our Eclipse Powered System™, or a Mechanical-Assist unit. Both are easily configured to the precise needs of virtually any collection.

Our mobile storage systems offer a superior level of protection and safety with any number of features, such as:

• Mobile carriages for smooth acceleration and deceleration to minimize vibration

• Perforated shelving to facilitate the flow of fire-suppression agents in the event of jar breakage – or to meet local fire codes
• Shelving backs and earthquake bars to further stabilize containers
• Synchronized drive systems that provide smooth carriage movement and minimize jarring
• Slopped, canopy tops and fire park/auto cycle available on our powered mobile systems

Spacesaver’s durable 4-Post Stationary Shelving Systems are another excellent option. Like our mobile systems, they provide excellent visibility – and make it easy to access any size container. For the largest specimens, look to heavy-duty, wide-span shelving.

Or, store large tanks in our museum-grade cabinets with uniquely designed specimen trays. Even store large tanks on carts, which rest on heavy-duty pullout drawers inside mobile storage systems. There are no limits.
