Since the company was founded in 1992 Conservation By Design Limited has been involved in the marketing and development of oxygen free storage and display products for use within the conservation and preservation profession. We believe the elimination of oxygen is the way forward for many difficult preservation problems whether it be the eradication of pests, preservation and drying of flood damaged material, document storage or the storage and display of plastics, rubber and geological specimens that are particulalry sensitive to oxidation and damage from UV.

We supply vacuum packing machines; transparent barrier pouches; barrier films on rolls; AGELESS oxygen scavengers; AGELESS EYE oxygen indicating tablets, oxygen monitoring equipment; and with the assistance of The Getty Conservation Institute we have recently embarked on a joint project with Rothstein Vitrinen to research and develop oxygen free showcases.
