Why you shouldn't hesitate: Paper photo durability and decay

Just like old analogue pictures and films, paper photos also have limited durability. In particular, photo paper from the 80’s and 90’s is especially bad. What’s more, there’s nothing you can do to restore damaged photos.

Scan your photos now before it’s too late:

With time your photos start to fade or color casts appear.
Light exposure worsens these effects. But even if stored in the dark, colour quality starts to decrease.
In particular, black-and-white photos start turning yellow and spoiled.
Repeated viewing also leads to photo damage, such as finger prints, stains, scratches, tears and so on.
Framed photos on walls will fade even faster if they’re exposed to sunlight.

Scan photos to digital and bring them back to life

Digitizing your photos means future generations can view your precious memories.

You can use your digitised memories in many new ways:

View them digitally on TV, PC or projector. Stop huddling over an old photo album trying to make out the details of a tiny photo — view your memories comfortably together on the living room TV!
Create photo books and gifts. Design digital photo books just the way you want them and have them professionally bound, a perfect gift for your loved ones. Freely combine new and old shots in a single book, and bring more colour and joy to everyday life with printed mugs, T-shirts and smartphone cases.
Create prints on modern materials. Want that small black-and-white photo of your parents’ wedding on a canvas in your living room? Or the colour-intensive 9×13 print from your Thailand trip in large format under classy acrylic glass? By scanning your photos, even small images can have a big impact.
