• Document Scanning
  
  The conversion of your paper files into digital images. This is the ideal method to make your paper records manageable and distributable. We can scan from cheque size documents all the way through conventional A4 size to large A0 documents and plans.




• Microfilming
  
  The conversion of your paper files into microfilm images for long term legally admissible archival storage.
  
  Microfilming is also more economical than document scanning if you require little access to that information.




• Deep Storage & Retrieval
  
  If you wish to maintain your paper records in their original format then we can arrange for your records to be stored in bankers boxes.
  
  These records can then be accessed and e-mailed back to you on request.




• Film Scanning
  
  The perfect compliment to our microfilming service.
  
  Once we convert your paper or digital records into microfilm we can offer the service of scanning those microfilm files into digital files for distribution. We can convert legacy microfilm collections by production scanning or offer an ad hoc service via desk top microfilm scanners.
  
  
  
• Digital Data and Image Archiving
  
  Our fastest growing service.
  
  With clients becoming ever more aware of the problems of using digital information for long term storage we can transform your important digital files to a 500 year analogue media that can be scanned immediately to return those files to a digital format when needed.
