LG Electronics Philippines Strengthens Heritage Preservation Efforts with Expanded National Museum Partnership

LG Electronics Philippines continues to demonstrate its commitment to cultural preservation and community support through an expanded partnership with the National Museum of the Philippines. As part of this ongoing collaboration, LG recently donated 41 LG PuriCare™ dehumidifiers to help maintain optimal indoor environmental conditions for the country’s valuable museum collections.

The donation marks a significant expansion of LG’s support for the National Museum. In 2025, the company provided 21 dehumidifiers to assist in preserving artworks housed at the National Museum of Fine Arts. Building on the success of that initiative, the latest donation aims to extend climate care support to more institutions and collections across the country.

The newly donated LG PuriCare™ dehumidifiers will be distributed to several National Museum facilities, including the National Museum of Anthropology, the National Museum of Natural History, and various regional museums nationwide. By helping regulate humidity levels, these devices play a crucial role in protecting sensitive materials such as artworks, historical artifacts, textiles, manuscripts, and natural history specimens from moisture-related damage.

The official turnover ceremony took place on May 18 at the National Museum of Natural History. The event coincided with International Museum Day 2026 and National Heritage Month in the Philippines, highlighting the importance of preserving the nation’s cultural and natural treasures for future generations.

Maintaining proper humidity levels is particularly important in the Philippines, where the tropical climate can accelerate the deterioration of museum collections. Excess moisture can contribute to mold growth, corrosion, warping, and other forms of damage that threaten the integrity of priceless artifacts and exhibits. The National Museum emphasized that dehumidifiers are essential tools in maintaining stable gallery conditions and ensuring long-term preservation.

For LG Electronics Philippines, the initiative reflects a broader commitment to corporate citizenship and the use of technology for social good. Beyond enhancing comfort in homes and businesses, LG’s climate care solutions are helping institutions safeguard the country’s heritage and educational resources.

The expanded partnership also brings valuable support to regional museums across Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao, ensuring that preservation efforts extend beyond Metro Manila. This nationwide approach helps protect significant cultural and natural collections that represent the diverse history and identity of the Filipino people.

Through this meaningful collaboration, LG Electronics Philippines and the National Museum of the Philippines demonstrate how innovative technology can serve a greater public purpose by supporting the preservation of the nation’s cultural legacy and natural heritage.
