Application: Newsprint, by its very nature is a poor candidate for long term preservation; it is manufactured at the lowest possible cost and contains acid, lignin and other impurities that do not bode well for long life. But there are things you can do. If the newspaper is of important historical or personal value, consider contacting a paper conservator who can neutralize some of the harmful impurities. This can be costly if you are doing more than a handful of clippings but such ‘’deacidification’’ can enhance newsprint life. More commonly, however, our customers accept the fact that newspapers will yellow and get brittle over time and simply want to extend that time by properly storing their newspapers under optimal conditions.

 Features: That means storing the papers in archival quality polyethylene bags and then storing the bagged papers in archival boxes. With this double-protection the box then needs to be stored in a cool, dry environment such as a closet in an air-conditioned home. Avoid temperature and humidity extremes found in basements or attics; if it is uncomfortable for you it will be uncomfortable for your stored newspapers. We offer the following, all-in-one kits to simplify newspaper and magazine storage. Simply measure the length and width of the newspaper or magazine and order the appropriate kit. Do not “stress” newspapers by packing them tightly in the storage box…pack them loosely.

Ordering Information: Each Kit consists of three components: One Drop Front Box, Ten Poly bags, One Re-Usable Desiccant; Metal Canister re-activated in vented oven or Plastic Canister restore in microwave oven.
