[Nhcoll-l] Entomology cabinets

[Furth, David]

I've been working with Majkowski Woodworking Company (Poland) [www.majkowski.eu & info at majkowski.eu<mailto:info at majkowski.eu> ) to produce entomological metal cabinets for a unique size of drawers for a museum overseas.  They produce an excellent metal cabinet; their drawers are also excellent and pest proof.  They have been attending the Entomological Collections Network meetings as vendors the past several years.  Because they are based in Europe, they are probably more cost-effective for collections on that side of the pond. Metal cabinets are much better and more archival than wood for most situations.

Dear all,

Our entomology collection is in need of more storage cabinets and cases.

We have a potential supplier but just wanted to see what other companies museums in Europe might be ordering from.

Kind regards,
Vanessa
