Protect your valuable collections
Keep your archival collections in optimal condition with a Munters dehumidification system. Say goodbye to costly heating. Don’t worry about outdoor weather conditions. Control relative humidity levels and protect and preserve valuables from the damaging effects of moisture with a dehumidifier.
Exposure to high relative humidity can damage valuable items. Relative humidity below 50% typically preserves most materials, leaving them unaffected by moisture levels in the air. Producing dry air with a desiccant dehumidifier is the only reliable way to protect your valuable collections, no matter the weather.

Protect your archives long term
Public and private archives provide secure, climate-controlled storage areas for collections such as research papers, public documents, books, films, clothing and seeds. Archival storage requires consistent climate control to ensure the integrity of the collections remains stable over time and meets the legal storage requirements and accessibility expectations for future generations.
As an archivist or records manager, you understand the importance of preserving materials for the long term. Uncontrolled high relative humidity can cause severe damage to most materials.
Keeping low and stable relative humidity levels year-round with a dehumidifier from Munters helps ensure ideal indoor climate conditions in your archives. Munters helps maintain optimal storage conditions, with relative humidity levels ranging from 45-60% and temperatures from 60-66°F [16-19°C]. Temporary archival facilities, such as military storage tents and shelters, also benefit from using Munters dehumidifiers. Store electronics, documents, steel, vehicles, food and pharmaceutical products with confidence in a fully humidity-controlled environment.
Dehumidification - the optimal solution for your valuable collections
Exposure to high relative humidity can damage materials in your archives. A Munters dehumidification system removes moisture from the air, effectively controlling humidity levels.
Munters dehumidifiers remove moisture from the air using a desiccant wheel, which easily attracts and holds water vapor. As air is blown through the rotor structure or drying wheel, the hygroscopic desiccant silica gel rotor absorbs the moisture in the air. Moisture-laden air leaves the rotor as dry air.
