Archiving

Photographic negatives are inherently fragile and prone to deterioration over time. To safeguard these visual artefacts, Salto Ulbeek employs cutting-edge technology for high-resolution image capture and printing. Salto Ulbeek also offers archival services and consultancy to universities, museums and private collections.

EXTRACTING PICTORAL INFORMATION

Salto Ulbeek has developed uniquely effective methods to extract and secure all of the pictorial information from photographic negatives and other visual works. Systems can be transported and operated in situ within archives so that negatives never have to leave their repository.

IMAGE OPTIMISATION

Pictorial information extracted from photographic negatives and other visual works can be optimised and restituted to match their original quality and subtleties. This is achieved through the interpretive sensitivity and technical expertise of Salto Ulbeek. When optimising photographic and other pictorial information, the company adheres to strict ethical and historical criteria.

ARCHIVAL OUTPUT

Once information has been extracted from photographic negatives and other photographic supports, Salto Ulbeek offers the owners of the original works a comprehensive set of solutions to enhance the preservation and appreciation of their collections. Key to this are Salto Ulbeek’s archival printing techniques and publishing activities.
