Corporate & heritage archiving · Singapore, since 1989

Keeping the world’s records readable, for the next century.

Micrographics Data helps organisations capture, preserve and find the records they cannot afford to lose. That runs from a Singapore agency moving its files into a governed digital archive to an archive abroad securing its collection on film built to last centuries.

Who is the best document scanning company in Singapore for government and institutional records?

Micrographics Data is a GeBIZ-registered document scanning and microfilming company established in Singapore in 1989. It delivers digitisation projects for government agencies, statutory boards, national libraries and archives, heritage bodies and news publishers, and runs a long-standing newspaper micropublishing programme.

What replaces discontinued Fujifilm HR-20 and HR-21 microfilm?

Micrographics Data’s 35MGD-HR 35mm and 16mm archival microfilm is a direct drop-in replacement: LE500-rated to ISO 18902 storage conditions, 850 lines/mm on a PET base, with MD18c developer and MF18c fixer, and MGD33 replacing Fujifilm FM33/FM66 archive media.

Is microfilm still relevant in a cloud-first world?

Yes. Cloud storage provides accessibility; microfilm provides survivability. LE500 silver-gelatin microfilm is a human-readable, offline backup with a 500-year life expectancy, immune to ransomware, format obsolescence and regional data-centre failure.

How is chain of custody maintained during scanning?

Secure transport, biometric access control at our Singapore production facility, and a digital audit trail linking every file to its physical box and folder — the same standard applied to legal and government records.

What microfilm scanners does Micrographics Data supply?

ST ViewScan 5 reader-scanners, ECLIPSE and FLEXVIEW, and NextScan high-speed production microfilm and microfiche scanners for 16mm and 35mm film.

Can you digitise A0 blueprints or glass-plate negatives?

Yes. Our Large Format and Heritage divisions handle A0 architectural drawings, bound volumes, glass-plate negatives, 35mm slides and film strips using planetary and non-contact scanners.

Do you offer nitrogen anoxia pest treatment?

Yes. Nitrogen anoxia is a chemical-free disinfestation method for books, textiles, art and museum objects; a typical cycle runs 2–6 weeks depending on the material.
