Books, artworks, artefacts and archives are all part of an important
historical heritage. It is our duty to ensure it can be passed on to future generations in a
good state to bear witness of the past.
Among the most important factors to preserve art collections is the stability of the surrounding
environment requiring temperature and humidity to be strictly controlled. Humidity fluctuations
generate mechanical stress in hygroscopic materials like books and artworks, caused by the
expansion and contraction of the fibers.
A properly controller atmosphere will help preserve any priceless manuscripts, books, works of art,
archives and other artefacts. Often, valuable pieces are kept in glass boxes to be individually
monitored according to their specific needs, which helps better adapt the environment for
optimal preservation. These precautions can lengthen the objects’ lifespan by preventing
electrostatic discharges and dust from damaging them.
Neptronic’s humidifiers can help create these optimal ambient conditions in museums and libraries. Our vast selection of controllers, sensors and humidistats help accurately and reliably monitor and control your humidifier to cater your needs.
