Media Storage and Management Solutions
Media archiving is the management and preservation of film, video and audio materials as well as digital media data files that are no longer used but still have value. For instance, it can be past content or footage that has historical value and needs to be available in the future as evidence, for reference, to raise awareness or to educate future generations.
At Stockroom London, we specialise in storing the following:
- Film Negatives
- Print Cans
- Video Tapes

- Hard Drives
- LTO Tapes

Ensuring your video and other media is secure
In accordance with the historical FACT certification, our organisation features high levels of security to protect its operations. Stockroom London has both extensive digital and physical security to ensure optimal protection.
You’ll get a dedicated area in the warehouse, so your materials are not mixed with other clients’ things. The facility is designed for optimal and long-term preservation of your media archives. It has a clean and climate-controlled environment with these systems that prolong your asset’s lifespan:
- Temperature and humidity controls. Proper temperature and humidity control is important to preserve archival collections. Unacceptable levels can cause materials to breakdown, and low humidity can lead to some materials becoming brittle.
- Fire protection. Emergency preparedness that covers fire hazards is important in preservation planning. An organised written plan enables efficient and quick response to an emergency. The plan is reviewed regularly and distributed to all personnel for emergency prevention and recovery.
- Video surveillance system. This feature is an important part of a storage facility’s security system. A quality system, proper placement of the cameras and things like proper coverage and lighting maximises the value of the system.
- Secure vaults. Fully secured vaults mean that there’ll be no unauthorised access to stored data. They are specifically designed to store tapes or hard drives, and can be protected with biometric security technology and internal and external video surveillance.
Benefits of Media Storage
