About Us
Our company, storage.boutique, is based in rural west of Scotland where we manufacture our own branded protective sleeves from three-layer BOPP – a new and advanced technology material. We are the world leader in the safe archive storage of photographs, prints, documents and collectables. Our protective sleeves are used by many of the top universities, archives and private collections across the planet.
Our Materials
storage.boutique has developed an innovative new, lightweight three layer, acid free, archive standard sleeve specifically sized for various collectables. They are manufactured here in the UK to our own exact specifications, from three different layers of very high quality biaxially oriented polypropylene (BOPP).
The outer layer is low density coated on the outside to retard the harmful effect of ultra-violet light. The middle layer is a dense core giving strength which prevents tearing but as the material is biaxally oriented it retains the extreme clarity for decades. The inside layer is untreated and inert, which ensures that the sleeves are completely acid free on contact with your precious collectable.
Our sleeves are sealed at the edge by compression and ultrasound, meaning that they fit neatly around your collectable putting the focus on the contents.
If you have previously stored paper-based items in hard plastic sleeves, albums or even polypockets you will know how they dull over time, degrade, and allow the ink on your collectable to fade through exposure to ultra-violet light damage.
The result of all this technology is a new, unique way of storing your archive or collection for a very long time, reducing hard plastic usage, and enhancing the display quality of the contents – and thereby possibly the value of your collection.
