Up to 90% of museum and art collections in the UK are in storage. Not only does this highlight the need for high-quality storage solutions, but also that specialist storage is an essential investment for curators to maximise space and display more of their collection.
As a curator, your artwork deserves to be showcased in the best possible way, and that's where Moduflex comes in. We offer a wide range of storage and display solutions, including Picture Racking, Mobile Shelving, and Static Shelving. In this post, we'll dive into how these storage solutions from Moduflex can transform your collection into a true work of art.
Transforming Space with Picture Racking
Whether you're planning a complete refurbishment or simply looking to enhance your current gallery setup, Moduflex's picture racking solutions are designed to meet your specific requirements. With a wide range of options to choose from, we can create picture racking to suit both your available space and your art collection.
Moduflex's bespoke design service allows you to create a unique picture racking solution that fits seamlessly into your gallery. Art galleries often struggle with limited space to display art and picture racking allows you to increase the available surface area by utilising floor space. It can also be easily fitted around existing storage.
The customisability of our picture racking is second to none - if you have any specific requirements for your art, we can create a solution.

The Importance of Specialist Artefact Storage in Museums
In addition to space-saving, quality museum storage also ensures the preservation of its artefacts. Artworks are susceptible to damage from external factors such as light exposure, temperature fluctuations, and humidity. Moduflex's picture racking and shelving solutions are specially designed to provide a safe and secure environment for storing artefacts, helping to preserve their condition.
With our expertise in specialist storage, we understand the importance of both functionality and aesthetics. We have extensive experience in designing shelving with custom features for unique items: from perforated shelves to dustproofing to heating and cooling components. We can also accommodate for heavy-duty or unusually sizes items.
We have created many unique systems for a wide range of products from weapons, fine art, artefacts and other valuables. We have created perforated shelving units which are ideal for regulating temperature and humidity, and units to hold existing trays or containers.
