The Hidden Risk: Fading Ink and Photo Degradation Over Time

You don’t need a flood or fire to lose your most important documents or treasured memories—time alone can quietly erase them.

Over the years, ink on documents fades, photos yellow or discolor, and paper becomes brittle. Even items stored safely indoors in drawers, filing cabinets, or albums aren’t immune. Exposure to air, light, humidity, and the natural aging of materials causes gradual but irreversible damage.

At USA Imaging, Inc., we’ve helped many families and businesses digitize paper archives and photo collections before deterioration set in. By scanning your documents and photos now, you capture the detail, color, and clarity before they fade away for good.

From handwritten letters and legal files to photo albums and award certificates, we turn your originals into high-resolution digital files that are easy to access, share, and store securely.

Don’t wait for time to take its toll. Preserve your legacy while there’s still time to save every word and image.
