Did you know?

The average humidity in the UK is actually 80% RH making it one of the most humid countries on the planet. High humidity in the air creates corrosion, perishing, warping, weakness of material and mould growth.

Here are some simple facts about classic car and bike storage

• Materials are affected by the moisture in the air around them. It is the moisture in the air creating rust, not the temperature.
• Mould and damp smelling interiors are mainly caused by moisture in the air from poor storage conditions.
• Leather interiors are affected by moisture, leading to cracking, weakness in the material and mould growth.
• Rubber seals are affected by moisture leading to accelerated perishing.
• Removing the moisture in the air uses less energy than alternative methods.
• Removing moisture from the air is the only effective way to control humidity.
