FWIW, textiles are stored in museums in plastic that is the same as
Rubbermaid/Sterilite containers sold in the USA as they are acid free and will
not harm fibers. I don't want to misquote the exact plastic as I have brain
fog this morning, but they will help seal out oxidizatation and prevent acid
factors. All you have to do is make sure it is clean and away from sunlight.
I think that safe storage and care of products in some ways was more proactive
in the past, though there was less available to use to protect. I agree with
the "needle stuck in thread" and people not even knowing the "nap" of threads,
etc. to facilitate execution of a project, which can also enhance longevity.
I hope your threads all stay safe and last a long long time...
Best blessings,
