When you are a business owner (or even a private individual), you will build up a lot of important documents that need protecting and preserving for the future. Whilst many try to push things to a digital spectrum when it comes to documentation, many business owners choose to keep physical copies, just in case you should lose all of your digital files in an incident.

Items like company accounts, employee information and other pressing business documents need to be kept in a safe place – but many business owners don’t have an option and tend to box them in a cupboard with no real organisation.

Use Filing Cabinets

Sure, it may sound obvious to most people running a business, but you would be surprised how many business owners overlook the simplest solutions.

Filing cabinets can be bulky objects, but they are a means to an end and the easiest way to categorise your documentation into easy-to-find locations. The construction and design of filing cabinets are made to be fully effective against water damage, sunlight and any insect or vermin infestation that may invade your business premises.

You can use the drawers of a filing cabinet to split archived files and items into categories of relevance, finding it much easier to pull out the relevant information when you need it.

Archive Storage Racking

Sometimes filing cabinets will fall short of your needs for storage of important documents. The second option would be archive storage racking units.

This product is specifically designed to store and organise those objects of importance and do it in a way that is cost-effective, strong and durable and a long-term solution for your business. It is a proven perfect model for the storage of a business’s vital documentation so that it is not compromised.

You can use archive storage racking to fill multiple rows of boxed-up documents, files, photographs, case files, employee documentation and records and other business files for decades, having them stored perfectly without any ruin.

Commercial Shelving

For individual rooms that could utilise storage space, commercial shelving is a great option that takes away the use of filing cabinets and larger racking alternatives in favour of something more structured to the area.

Using commercial shelving in designated spaces is perfect for storing multiple boxes and other items in a neat and organised fashion. Plus, it does not break the ban to fit out an area with regular or ceiling-tall shelving options.
