MAKING MEMORIES LAST A LIFETIME<br />
A number of elements can affect the life of an inkjet print.<br />
In addition to the type of ink and media used, factors<br />
including light, humidity, temperature, air pollutants,<br />
ozone levels and how and where the print is displayed,<br />
can all infl uence the permanence of a print.<br />
ILFORD media is manufactured using raw materials<br />
of the highest quality and purity that preserve the<br />
longevity of the image without contributing to colour<br />
degradation. In addition, rigorous internal and external<br />
tests are conducted to ensure the quality of the print is<br />
maintained.<br />
Before launching any new inkjet product, ILFORD tests<br />
the media with all major printer models and undertakes<br />
stringent scientifi c evaluation to measure the impact of<br />
light, ozone, humidity and sensitivity to temperature.<br />
It is not only the image’s permanence that is important<br />
for a photographer but also the physical integrity of<br />
the print. Therefore, ILFORD also undertakes a series<br />
of physical tests to measure scratch, brittleness and<br />
delamination.<br />
Professional photographers expect the very best and<br />
ILFORD goes that step further to ensure their internal<br />
testing processes are not only meticulous but exhaustive<br />
so that the standards they set are the benchmark for<br />
others to follow.<br />
