The best place to start your time capsule preservation project is with a Preservation Kit. The K1 includes a variety of safe archival enclosures for time capsule and archives items. It includes the popular Corrosion Intercept bags, special papers, photo enclosures, acid free tissue, and other hard to find items that are most useful for time capsule projects. If you really want your items to last longer inside of a time capsule, you need a preservation kit. If you don't care so much, simply forget about it.
We designed this preservation kit for our medium sized time capsule boxes. The kit has at least 200 preservation supply items in all. Other things in the kit include Magazine Envelopes, Document Sleeves, Desiccant, Archival Buffered Tissue, and of course our main preservation booklet, Preservation Hints for Time Capsule Items. Please see the detailed supplies below to see what's currently in your kit.
