Choose the Right Preservation Kit for your Time Capsule Project
We offer a variety of different preservation kits. Some are designed for the smaller Future Line cylinder time capsules. Others work better for larger time capsules because of the sheer volume of items that can fit into the boxes. The enclosures must fit your items as well as the time capsule container for them! If you have too many envelopes, you will have less space inside for your items. This page is hard to keep up with! Please see each kit individually to be sure of what's in it. Buy all the kits here.
Recently, we changed the preservation kits to include more items that most of our customers cannot get - the Corrosion Intercept pouches, Fine Papers, and Buffered Paper envelopes & tissues. We removed a few of the pamphlets that do not deal with preservation, and added more preservation items thereby (or decreased the price). In all cases when you buy a preservation kit from us, you get at least the 20% discount off of what it would cost to buy the items in that quantity list price. This page is not updated as often as the product item available in our store. Please go to the preservation kit item to see the detailed listing as it's updated during the year.
