Archival Box Making
Handmade at our factory in Sheffield, UK, our archival boxes constructed with wire stitching are particularly suitable for the long term storage of large heavy items such as textiles, costumes, glass plate negatives, geological samples or a variety of museum objects, as well as books and documents.
The box corners are held together by wire stitches rather than glue, and this greatly increases the longevity of our archival boxes, and results in the excellent long term archiving and protection of its contents.
These sturdy and long lasting archive boxes are used frequently in Government departments, educational establishments, museums, local councils, libraries, solicitors, accountants and charities.
Our flexible production techniques allow us quickly expedite high quality archival storage boxes, designed and manufactured to your exact specifications.
