Digitize images and films at MEDIAFIX

Many archives, museums, companies, universities and hospitals still own important archived documents as well as analogue images and films. Often they are very valueable and with time quality starts to decrease more and more. The only possibility to preserve all these documents, pictures and videos, is to have them digitized.

Digitization of analogue media is quite challenging for many institutes – especially if it is about a large amount of image and film media with high value.

Our experience of over 1 million digitized media per month and TÜV-certified customer satisfaction has made MEDIAFIX to the market leader in the digitization business.

Our solution for digitizing your media

Your benefits as a business customer:

Your analogue media are valueable and unique. This is why we attach great importance to the security of your media. With our security concept we ensure best protection for your media:

We make a difference between media that has to be protected from spontaneous ignition (e.g. nitrate films) and media that has a high historical and artistic value.

Both are stored in our fire protection cabinets. The media are only for removed for digitization and afterwards immediately are stored back into the cabinet.

The fire protection cabinets correspond to current fire protection requirements. Every delivered amount is insured up to €150.000,00 at our insurance (Gothaer Versicherungsbank VVaG) while remaining at MEDIAFIX.

In addition there is an access control. Only our management and shift management have access to the cabinets in order to ensure that all requirements for a high grade of data protection is guaranteed.

Besides our protection effort all the media is also taken care of very well during the digitization process. In general they are touched only with protective gloves or special tweezers. Removing and reinserting the media into sleeves is only done by trained personnel. Furthermore the digitization process is done uv light-friendly with special lighting.

Within only a few years MEDIAFIX became Germany’s biggest company for digitizing images and films considering the number of employees, the amount of converted films and images per month, sales and plant size. Since its founding in 2012 we have already digitized over 204 million media for our customers. Therefore MEDIAFIX has established itself as the market leader for converting analogue media to digital.

Recognize the urgent need for action

The German government is planning to have their archive collection digitized until 2050. For a good reason: durabililty of analogue media depends on several factors:

age | material quality | temperature | humidity | storage | use intensity

If your company, your institution or even you as a professional photographer or photo and video journalist want to give a digital future to your valueable analogue image documents, there is no other chance than to have them digitized. Hesitating can mean that the media has to be restored, which is very expensive in time and money. If you act quickly, you will not also benefit from faster availability, but also will save money for restoring the damaged images and films.

Over 400 negatives were digitized within one week at MEDIAFIX and I was highly impressed by the result. No detail in the photos was lost and although the picture were quite aged, the colors could be reproduced very well.
