ABOUT OXFORD DUPLICATION CENTRE

Preserving the past.
Making information accessible for the future.

Since opening in 2007, Oxford Duplication Centre has developed into a multi-award-winning specialist digitisation company, helping organisations and individuals convert valuable physical and analogue collections into high-quality digital content.

Specialists in complex digitisation

Based in Oxfordshire, our team works with corporate clients, archives, heritage organisations, businesses and private collections across the UK and internationally.

We digitise a wide range of analogue and physical media, including audio and video tape, cine and motion film, photographic film, photographs, books, manuscripts, maps, artwork and corporate documents.

Every collection is different. Our approach combines specialist equipment, experienced technicians, careful preparation and quality-controlled workflows to create digital files that are practical for access, preservation and future use.

Fragile heritage material prepared for digitisation
HOW WE WORK

Careful handling.
Controlled workflows.
Consistent results.

Valuable collections require more than simply putting material through a scanner or playback machine. We assess the material, select appropriate equipment and prepare each collection for digitisation before capture begins.

01 Assess

Understand the collection, condition and project requirements.

02 Prepare

Handle, clean and prepare material appropriately before capture.

03 Digitise

Use specialist equipment and project-specific capture settings.

04 Quality Check

Review digital output before delivery or further processing.

SECURITY & DATA PROTECTION

Professional handling from collection to delivery

We understand that digitisation projects can involve confidential business information, personal records and irreplaceable heritage material. Our processes are designed around careful handling, confidentiality and controlled digital delivery.

SPECIALIST EQUIPMENT

Technology selected for the material we handle

Our studio uses specialist scanning, imaging, audio and video equipment selected for different collection types. This allows us to adapt the workflow to the material rather than taking a one-size-fits-all approach.
