Services
From digitisation to long-term archival, Vastora provides everything you need to protect and manage your creative assets.
Use these services alongside your Digital Media Archive or as standalone services
Safeguard your audio, photo, and video assets using LTO tape - the same archival technology trusted by film studios, broadcasters, and data centres worldwide. Each LTO-9 cartridge stores up to 18 TB natively, with an archival life of 30+ years. We create a meticulously organised directory structure and log file, ensuring your entire catalogue is easily navigable and future-accessible.
Why not hard drives? Traditional hard drives rely on mechanical components, spinning disks, motors, and read/write heads that can fail unexpectedly. Even unused drives degrade over time, making them unreliable for long-term preservation without a dedicated archival strategy.
Proxy files can be linked directly to the Vastora digital archive for seamless browsing. Optional backup copies available for dual-location storage or our secure offsite service.

Request QuoteWe digitise legacy formats - MiniDV, Super 8, VHS, Hi8, and other tape and film formats - transforming them into high-quality digital files ready for modern use and long-term preservation. We also capture slides, negatives, and photographic prints, converting them into detailed digital images while preserving the character of the originals.
In addition we offer AI or manual media restoration services improving the quality of your legacy media.
Once digitised, your media can be securely stored and organised through the Vastora Digital Media Archive, with optional LTO tape backup for true long-term protection. Alternatively your newly created media can be delivered digitally via secure transfer, or on physical media such as SSDs or encrypted drives.
