ETHER Conservation is a business unit of The ETHER Initiative and it is focused on providing a wide range of conservation materials and equipment, as well as providing the right advice on effective conservation for all types of needs.
ETHER have established a local agency of Conservation By Design (CXD) of the UK, who provide a vast range of conservation materials and equipment, and who have many of the the world’s top museums as their regular clients.
CXD have recently purchased Stouls of France, and the Stouls catalogue has been added to the CXD catalogue, and offer an end-to-end range of products to support heritage institutions.
It is our mission to provide these high-quality products to South African institutions and to ensure that we can advise on the right mix of products to meet your needs and your budgets.
