Cott's Microfilm Services, utilizing a Kodak certified lab, allow you to maintain a film copy of your important documents that, when stored properly, will last for hundreds of years - a last line of defense against the loss of data.

In today’s ever changing world so many new media types have been developed (Floppy, CD, DVD, numerous tape versions). Only Microfilm has stood the test of time and is truly the only long-lasting media.  Microfilm is created from scanned images of your documents that will provide superior quality when compared to traditional microfilm that was created using cameras.

Creating Microfilm from digital images enables additional features like size blipping, image indexing, single or dual channeling and the ability to provide additional silver copies with the exact same quality.
