uniquely frank

There’s a reason why the Frank Showcase System stands in the

most prestigious museums in the world, holding the most

valuable and treasured objects in our collective history.

Frank cases are conservation-grade, flexible, accessible and

uniquely customizable. With virtually no size limitations and a

patented design that ships and stores flat, Frank is the perfect fit

for institutions of all sizes. This German-engineered system is

brought to you by Frank Europe and its international partners.

Frank cases and vitrines ship flat to save you money, make delivery

easier and enable efficient storage leading up to your exhibition. Just

remember to allow adequate time for assembly before the exhibit.

When time is of the essence, ask us about professional installation

services to take care of the assembly for you. We also recommend

installation services for large and/or complex custom cases to ensure

everything goes smoothly.

Professional Installation Available

If your exhibition date is looming, we may be able to ship your case

assembled depending on size and complexity. Be sure to discuss your

time frame, preferences and budget with your sales rep, and we’ll help

you choose the right option.

Lighting

Frank provides a unique magnetic rail system for lighting. All of the LED-Spots are

available in different colours (°K) and are dimmable. A huge advantage is that all the

spots can be fixed freely.

Shelving

The shelving system is completely adjustable. The structure is made of aluminium. The

glass shelves, themselves, can be laminated or tempered but always in our standard

low-iron quality.

Passive Climate Control Mobile Storage System

Frank has developed a base frame with drawer to allow humidity control in the case.

ProSorb can be included according the volume of the inside space. All materials used by

Frank Europe are completely emission-free.

All our flight cases allow optimal protection and provide easy access and storage at all

times. A flight case can contain one or multiple showcases within one single unit. All

dimensions are always custom made on request.
