Itoya Of America, Ltd Profolio Archive-All Storage Box 9x12" Black educational supply

Archival-Safe Storage for Art and Documents

The Itoya Profolio Archive-All Storage Box is a black polypropylene clamshell case designed to protect artwork, photographs, and documents from acid and lignin damage. Its archival-safe construction makes it suitable for professionals and enthusiasts who require long-term preservation of valuable items. The box measures 9 by 12 inches and provides a secure enclosure for flat materials.

Limits of Polypropylene Protection

The weather-resistant polypropylene shell shields contents from dust, moisture, and physical bending during handling or transport. However, the material is not rated for fire resistance, water immersion, or impact loads beyond normal shelf storage. It does not offer climate control, so items sensitive to humidity swings or temperature extremes still need a controlled environment. The clamshell hinge and latch are designed for occasional access rather than daily heavy use.

Simple Setup With Spine Labeling

The box arrives fully assembled and ready to use; simply open the clamshell, place items inside, and close the lid. A reusable spine label insert slides into the exterior spine pocket for quick identification of contents. The most common issue is overfilling the case, which can prevent the latch from closing securely and may stress the hinge over time. Ensure the spine label is fully seated to avoid it catching on adjacent boxes.
