Archive shelving for long-term storage

Engineered for Retention. Built for the Long Term.

Hydestor provides archive shelving solutions across New Zealand, for government departments, legal practices, offices, medical facilities, libraries, and museums. We understand that archive storage demands more than a standard shelf; it requires systems that protect records and collections over decades, remain accessible to staff, and meet New Zealand's seismic requirements. Our specialists work with facilities managers and archivists to design layouts that make the most of your available space without compromising on access or safety.

Why choose Hydestor for your archive shelving?

High-Density Mobile Options:

Our mobile archive shelving eliminates fixed aisles between bays, significantly increasing the volume you can store within the same floor area.

NZ-Made for Long-Term Performance:

Archive shelving needs to perform reliably for decades; our NZ-manufactured systems are built from high-quality steel to do exactly that.

Direct Manufacturer Support:

As local manufacturers, we supply replacement parts and provide ongoing support long after your archive shelving installation is complete.

Seismic Safety as Standard:

All our archive shelving is designed and manufactured to meet New Zealand's seismic requirements, protecting records and collections during unexpected events.
