In our 85th year in existence and ten years after opening our first museum-standard storage warehouse, we have opened a state-of-the-art fine art storage facility in Wandsworth, London! Designed by UK Director of Art Operations, Jim Grundy, to offer the very latest in art storage capabilities, the purpose-built warehouse will cater to the full range of our clients, from galleries, to institutions, to interior designers, to private clients.

The facility offers the very latest in security, fire safety and environmental condition control in a location ideally placed for serving clients in London and beyond. From the moment goods arrive in the vast 30m tall secure and climate-controlled loading bays, they will be safe and secure from any damage. Individually heated and humidified storage units will allow all works of art to be looked after effectively and discreetly, ensuring that items leave the facility in exactly the same condition in which they arrived.

The Wandsworth facility joins our three other UK storage facilities, as well as another in mainland Europe and five more in the United States, giving us a truly global reach with the latest technologies.
