Danish Museum Needed Efficient, Space-Saving Storage for Artifacts
The Danish Museum in Western Canada faced a critical challenge: storing delicate rolls of linen, fabric, and small historical artifacts in a very confined space. The museum’s existing storage lacked structure, making it difficult for staff to access items efficiently while maintaining the preservation of valuable historical materials.
With artifacts of cultural significance at stake, the museum sought a partner capable of designing a space-efficient system that catered to both functionality and preservation. That’s where Westbow Systems stepped in.
