Glass plate negatives and positives are unique historical witnesses — yet extremely fragile. With our specialized digitization process, we preserve these valuable image carriers in the highest possible quality and secure them for the future. We combine technical precision with conservation care to maintain the distinctive details and historical depth of each original.
Our services include:
  • Manual cleaning of the originals
  • Gentle digitization of glass plates (negatives and positives) in various formats
  • High-resolution scanning in color or grayscale´
  • Color and density correction for true-to-original reproduction
  • Optional retouching and digital restoration of damaged or contaminated areas
  • Custom file formats (e.g., TIFF, JPEG) and color spaces (Adobe RGB, eciRGB, grayscale)
  • Metadata capture and structured file naming
  • Consultation and support for large collections or institutional projects
