Fratelli Alinari Case Study

“ So we decided today that Piql is the best solution available in the market to provide at an industrial level the most secure mechanism to preserve and store valuable media for the long-term.

Through this project, Alinari discovered its current preservation strategy was not optimal and, given cer tain conditions, the image stability could disappear in just a few years. Alinari needed a resilient, enduring medium to pre serve their images and began seeking a preservation solution offering ultimate protection and longevity. Piql’s storage solution has been tested and proven re silient to 500+ years and can ensure valuable assets and data are safely kept for future generations. Piql Film is considered an eternal data carrier, perfect for long-term preservation of history too valuable to lose. The eternal nature of film combined with guaranteed future accessibility made Piql an easy choice for Ali nari. Our secure and resilient solution gave Alinari the confidence that the images will live on long after we’re gone, without the need for migration as platforms evolve. For a pilot project, Alinari identified over 500 19th cen tury masterpieces, chosen for their cultural, historical, economic and educational value. The images were transferred onto piqlFilm both as high resolution digital files and visual prints, before the reel was securely stored in the Arctic World Ar chive, Svalbard Norway. The Artic World Archive is the perfect place to store world memory. It’s isolation, climate and status ensure data stored there will live on for generations to come. SOLUTION
