    Brief

    The National Library of Scotland and the National Records of Scotland seek suppliers for archival boxboard in various sizes and weights. The boxboard will be cut and folded on-site using KasemakeCAD box-making machines to create storage boxes that protect collection materials from temperature and humidity fluctuations, light exposure, dust, handling damage, and water damage. All work complies with ISO 16245:2009 (cellulosic material storage boxes for documents) and BS 4971:2017 (conservation and care standards). The contract includes material supply, delivery, and uplift of pallets and boxboard off-cuts. Suppliers should have experience providing archival-grade materials that meet heritage collection preservation standards.
