The CXD Story:

Conservation By Design Australia

Conservation By Design Australia, is a dedicated specialty division of Larson-Juhl who are Australia's largest wholesale supplier to the art & framing industry.

We aim to specialise in providing archival, preservation materials and supplies to the museum and bookbinding industry, with exclusive, innovative, market-leading products. 

Although a majority of our expanded product range is sourced from Conservation By Design in the UK, we also source product from other market-leading manufacturers such as Bainbridge Artcare matboard and Tru-Vue Optium Museum Acrylic. 

Conservation By Design International

The international head office for Conservation By Design (CXD) is based in the UK since 1992, and has long been recognised as Europe's leading and most comprehensive supplier of conservation and preservation materials. 

Conservation by Design has also been awarded the unique distinction of being a holder of the Royal Warrant by appointment to Her Majesty the Queen. 

CXD’s passion is conservation, and its reputation for quality and expertise has been built on an enthusiasm to understand and satisfy the needs of a wide variety of clients. The company’s commitment to craftsmanship and tradition is matched by an advanced product development program to ensure that it continues to lead the market through innovation.

In 2007 CXD was acquired by Larson-Juhl international, the world's leading supplier to the art and framing market. This move provided the support, investment and resources needed to help develop the company, improve its customer service and explore and develop some exciting new product opportunities.
