    how to flatten cut paper??

    Roll paper is a pain. In the US Fuji sells CA paper in sheets, the last company to do so. Kodak Alaris only in rolls.

    Cinestill 800T recall

    Admitting that they got something wrong is still much better, both for the user and the firm's image, than sweeping things under the carpet and having faulty film sold, as Kodak Alaris did.

    Bad XTOL?

    Wow, they're giving three years from manufacture date (or were last year)? Used to be two years. That's years newer than the batch(es) with the iron contamination problem, but green is still not a normal color for Xtol. We look forward to hearing what Kodak Alaris has to say.

    Bad XTOL?

    There was a batch of X-Tol that had problems due to a failure of the (revised) packaging material. I would reach out to Kodak Alaris - profilm@kodakalaris.com. While you are at it, maybe you can ask about when the current shortages might end, and report back :).

    Kodak gets loan; Stock Triples in Value!

    Kodak Alaris did receive a partial interest in that plant as part of the bankruptcy settlement, although that interest was most likely a leasehold interest which may have now expired.

    Ok, I got confused, but doesnt Kodak Eastman still make color paper in Colorado, and that plant is on the table?

    Kodak gets loan; Stock Triples in Value!

    Kodak gets loan; Stock Triples in Value!

    Kodak doesn't own the film division, that's Kodak Alaris which was spun off as part of it's bankruptcy settlement. And if the wire stories are accurate Kodak is in talks with a Chinese holding company to sell off it remaining photography and imaging assets including it's color paper plant in...

    Replenish Xtol with Eco Pro LegacyPro?

    I've had a "Yellow and Red" monkey on my back for 50 years :D. I'm not going to give it up until they pry it from my fingers. I really miss the company that EK once was. I bought quite a stockpile, but the new XTOL works fine, I see no difference. I've used Ilford Bromophen for the last 25...

    Kodak gets loan; Stock Triples in Value!

    This seems to be a good fit for EK. Now if the Government would give Kodak the money to buy the film division from Alaris we would be doing great. There are a lot of very talented people that can make generic drug ingredients . This is a good idea.

    Cassette to Cassette -- how do I say that in Russian?

    I don't think so. First, Kodak Alaris are the ones who drive the issue of what still film products are to be manufactured, based on what Kodak Alaris can sell. The motivation for the re-introduction of Ektachrome came mostly from Kodak Alaris' end. Also Eastman Kodak isn't going to change...

    New Dektol looks like root beer

    Did Kodak discontinue its Hypo Clearing Agent?

    ...- roughly when the receivership of Tetenal threw so much into the realm of uncertainty. There are a number of black and white chemicals listed on Kodak Alaris' website under a May 14, 2020 note indicating that they were dealing with Covid 19 related shipping problems, but HCA isn't one of them.

    New Dektol looks like root beer

    Kodak Alaris is the company formed by the Kodak UK pension plan when Eastman Kodak went bankrupt in 2012. That pension plan had one of if not the largest secured claims against the assets of Eastman Kodak at the time of bankruptcy. As a part of the bankruptcy settlement, the Kodak UK pension...

    New Dektol looks like root beer

    The products I've always trusted are labeled, "Kodak". The products that seem to be plagued with problems lately are labelled "Kodak Alaris". Assuming Kodak has passed it's consumer analog photo business off to an independent company, then the product quality we're used to could be history. I...

    Kodak Alaris Deal with Sino Promise Holdings?

    ...for Fujifilm color paper, this operation by Sino Promise is located where the customers are. I hope somehow Eastman Kodak's film business and Kodak Alaris' film business can be brought together by a "White Knight" and we will live happily ever after. (Oh, and bring Agfa back too!) :smile:

    Kodak Alaris Deal with Sino Promise Holdings?

    Unfortunately not in the short and mid term future. Eastman Kodak and Kodak Alaris have been in talks about it. When KA decided to sell the film, photo paper and chemical part of their business, EK was of course the first (and best) candidate for it. But it looks like EK had / has not the...

    No, this plant is a Carestream factory. But Carestream has been doing contract coating runs of silver-halide RA-4 photo paper for Kodak Alaris. Best regards, Henning

    Kodak Alaris Deal with Sino Promise Holdings?

    ...precise, and some details are definitely wrong. Best is to wait for the final deal and official statement. In January I've been told by Kodak Alaris that the sale of the film, photo paper and chemical part of KA was put on hold. In March a global reorganization has started. Now it looks that...

    Yeah I have contacted them. Will wait til they get back from holidays to see what they say. Yes I did put a lot of effort in for these ones. Oh well. More thirst for the next shoot. Thanks for the response

    Definitely contact Kodak Alaris. These days transportation is so much more of a variable, smaller shipments longer transit times. Kodak Alaris has been quite good about responding to technical issues. I shoot a lot of Kodak 120, I always order in the cooler months and refrigerate until use...
