Dehumidifier for Storage and Preservation Facilities - Storage Humidity Control

Protecting Assets Through Precise Environmental Control

Storage and preservation facilities play a critical role in safeguarding valuable materials—from fine art and historical artefacts to medical supplies, electronic components, and industrial spares. However, even the most secure and modern storage environments are vulnerable to one silent threat: uncontrolled humidity. Moisture in the air can lead to corrosion, mould, material degradation, and irreversible damage. At Dehum, we deliver engineered humidity control systems designed specifically for storage environments, ensuring your assets are preserved in optimal conditions year-round.

Protecting Assets Through Precise Environmental Control

Sub Applications.

Every storage facility has its own climate control requirements, depending on the type of items stored and the sensitivity of the materials. Whether you’re managing a heritage archive, a museum collection, high-value car storage, or bulk raw materials, the right dehumidification solution is essential. Dehum supports organisations across the UK with proven systems that stabilise humidity, reduce energy use, and protect investments from preventable environmental damage.

Heritage & Archival Storage Solutions.

Paper, textiles, and ancient artefacts are highly sensitive to fluctuating humidity. Our systems create precisely controlled microclimates that slow material ageing, prevent microbial growth, and maintain archival stability. We tailor systems to protect against even the most subtle changes in ambient conditions, essential for long-term preservation.

Heritage & Archival Storage Solutions

Art Galleries & Museum Collections Solutions.

Paintings, sculptures, and mixed media pieces can warp, crack, or fade when exposed to excess moisture. Dehum solutions provide consistent RH control, using ultra-responsive sensors and automated regulation to maintain artwork in pristine condition. Museums and galleries trust our systems to ensure long-term conservation compliance.

Frequently Asked Storage & Preservation Humidity Control Questions

Many of our clients come to us unsure of where to start, they just know they’ve got a humidity problem. That’s where we come in. These FAQs cover the most common questions we hear, so you can feel confident in finding the right solution with DEHUM.

This depends on what it is your storing, and the material your containers are made from. But on average, you should be aiming for around 45-50% relative humidity to prevent mould and other humidity-related issues.
If you don’t have humidity control in place within your document archive or storage facility, mould and other issues can run rampant. Even documents in sealed containers can warp due to the damp air, ruining their crisp condition.
A desiccant dehumidifier will lower the RH within your storage unit, so that the issues listed above cannot occur. For small units, or ones you’re only using for a short time, a temporary dehumidifier will work, but if you own these units or use them regularly, installing a permanent dehumidification system is recommended.
