Delivering state of the art heritage digitisation services worldwide

A MEMORIST company, Arkhênum has been providing digitisation and sharing services for heritage and industrial collections for over 25 years. Our services are carried out either in our own workshops or directly on site, wherever our clients may be. Watch our video to see the heritage collections we have helped safeguard in 2025…

Cutting-edge digitisation projects

Over the past 25 years, Arkhênum has continuously expanded its range of scanners to digitise all types of collections: 2D scanning, packshot format digitisation, 360° object scanning, microfilms and more.

Among our latest innovations is the ability to digitise documents that cannot be fully opened, thanks to our 45° scanning service. A suite of combined 180°/120° scanners combined with the 45° option, can be organized for our client’s projects.

We have also made significant strides in metadata enrichment through the use of artificial intelligence, particularly in handwriting recognition and image analysis. As a result, you can benefit from more accurate indexing of your documents and considerable time savings.

Support from collection preparation through to dissemination

Expert tips on how to clean heritage collections preventing any further damage over time
With more and more clients turning to us for support both before and after digitisation, Arkhênum has developed a range of services including audits, inventory reconciliation and even preventive conservation of collections. We can support your teams on a specific project or during a defined period, helping you launch the digitisation of your archives under optimal conditions.

Ensuring the physical and digital preservation of the collections in your care is your primary responsibility. But the other side of your mission—making them accessible and promoting their value—often requires specific expertise that may not be available in-house. Arkhênum can support you across a range of communication channels, from setting up digital libraries to producing editorial content, heritage films, commemorative books and even exhibition spaces. For each of your projects, we draw on our team of 100 experts to select the profiles best suited to your needs. This team includes archivists, historians, digitisation specialists, digital library managers and more.
