The demand for professional, secure and flexible art storage continues to grow. To provide museums, galleries, artists, private collectors and other collection owners with additional space, Imming Logistics Fine Art has expanded its fine art storage facility in Zwaag, near Amsterdam. The additional capacity is suitable for both temporary and long-term storage, ranging from individual artworks to complete collections.

Additional space for artworks and collections

Our expanded facility allows us to respond even more effectively to a wide variety of storage requirements. Long-term storage may be required because a collection is growing or because there is insufficient space at its current location. In other situations, temporary art storage may be needed during a renovation, relocation, exhibition changeover or collection inventory.

The available storage space can be configured according to the specific requirements of each collection. Depending on the objects and materials involved, we use painting racks, shelving systems and private, lockable storage units. This enables us to store paintings, works on paper, sculptures, design objects and other museum-quality objects safely and systematically.

Secure, climate-controlled art storage

Our modern fine art storage facility provides more than 6,000 square metres of secure, climate-controlled storage space. Temperature and relative humidity are monitored 24 hours a day, allowing any changes to be identified quickly. Separate compartments help maintain stable storage conditions and enable us to tailor the space to the nature and size of each collection.

The facility is secured to BORG Class 4 standards. Private, lockable storage units are also available for collections that require a dedicated and separated space. This combines professional security with flexible and well-organised storage.

Temporary storage during renovations, relocations and exhibitions

A museum renovation or collection relocation often involves more than simply finding sufficient storage space. Artworks may need to be inventoried, condition-checked, packed, transported and assigned a new storage location. Temporary storage may also be needed for incoming loans, objects moving between exhibitions or artworks that are not currently on display.

Imming Logistics Fine Art can manage the entire process, from collection inventories and condition checks to custom packaging, fine art transport, art handling and climate-controlled storage. This means that responsibility for the collection remains with one specialist partner throughout the project.

Facilities for collection management

In addition to secure storage, our facility offers dedicated spaces for working with art and heritage collections. Our collection workspace can be used for condition checks, inventories, registration and collection-related projects. A separate viewing room provides a professional and discreet environment in which to inspect or discuss artworks.

Our experienced team can also assist with configuring the storage space, registering object locations and moving artworks safely within the facility.

A sustainable fine art storage facility near Amsterdam

The Imming Logistics Fine Art storage facility is located in Zwaag, approximately 35 minutes from Amsterdam and easily accessible via the A7 motorway. This central location in the Netherlands makes it suitable for collections originating from museums, galleries, companies and private collectors throughout the country and abroad.

Our facility is gas-free and uses electric air-source heat pumps. Intelligent compartmentalisation and airlock systems help minimise heat loss while maintaining a stable indoor climate efficiently.

The expansion supports our ambition to combine secure art storage with sustainable fine art logistics. We consider not only the energy consumption of our facility, but also efficient transport planning and the reuse of specialist packaging materials.

No two artworks or collections are the same. We therefore assess the required space, storage conditions and additional services in advance.
