    Light-sensitive Media

    Protect Your Media: Secure Storage for Light Sensitivity

    Storing light-sensitive media within a robust warehouse environment offers a secure and reliable solution for preserving their integrity. Proper warehouse design and management are paramount to minimizing light exposure, a key factor in maintaining the quality and longevity of these materials. Warehouses provide a stable, dark storage space, crucial for reducing degradation caused by illumination. Dedicated, shaded areas within the facility, strategically positioned away from windows and bright lighting, should be utilized. Consider utilizing dark-colored shelving and containers to further absorb ambient light. Regular inventory audits and meticulous tracking systems are essential to ensure materials are handled with care and rotated according to a FIFO (First In, First Out) system, maximizing the lifespan of older stock. A well-organized warehouse layout streamlines access and reduces handling, minimizing the potential for damage. Furthermore, the inherent security features of a warehouse – robust access control and vigilant security personnel – provide added protection against theft and unauthorized access, safeguarding your valuable assets. Selecting a warehouse with experienced staff and a commitment to meticulous record-keeping is a vital investment in the long-term preservation of your light-sensitive materials.

    Space Requirements

    • Storage Size/Dimensions: Minimum 150 square feet, 12ft x 12ft area, Height clearance: 9 feet. A dedicated aisle space of 5 feet wide is required alongside the storage area.

    • Storage Conditions: The storage area must be dry and well-ventilated. Exposure to direct sunlight should be minimized. The area should be kept free of dust and debris. Avoid storing near exterior walls or doors susceptible to drafts.

    • Special Handling: Items must be individually wrapped in acid-free tissue paper or bubble wrap. All items should be padded with foam or cardboard to prevent scratching or damage. Fragile items require extra cushioning. Handle with care, avoiding dropping or jarring.

    • Stacking/Shelving: Items can be stacked up to 48 inches maximum. Shelving units with 8-foot adjustable shelves are recommended. Pallet storage is permitted, but pallets should be covered to prevent direct contact with the media.

    • Access Requirements: Loading dock needs a 10ft x 12ft loading bay. Door width: 9 feet. Clearance space of 3 feet is required at the loading dock for forklift maneuverability. The aisle width should be at least 5 feet for easy access. Consider a secondary access door for smaller equipment.
