It is actually not such a great task to manufacture a true IR film again.
IR googles were introduced in about the mid 1980ies i.I.r.r. thus IR film has to be produced with the technology in place before this date. It makes it all a little harder and more expensive but not prohibitively harder or more expensive. It´s part of the higher price we have always charged for the IR version of a given film.I thought that the difficulty was in that the operators at the coater cannot use IR goggles / IR cameras anymore to inspect the operation. If you can, please tell me if i'm correct. Many thanks!!
Could you take orders that will be fulfilled once the break even point has been passed?
If a profitable short to medium sized run would satisfy demand for say 5 years, then those customers would probably wait a few years for the first run as long as they knew it was coming.

We need to become able to coat small batches of film on our new machine.
Let us try a few coatings with CHS 100 II first. If this is all set up (...)
Thank you but I am looking for 100ft rolls of this product. not cut sheet.
Instead of waiting, you can use right now the Ilford SFX film.
If you had done that, you'd be now a master of it instead of moaning about discontinued films that will not be coming back anytime soon.
Have you asked the factory?Thank you but I am looking for 100ft rolls of this product. not cut sheet.
Good on you!Excuse me?? Moaning?? What are you talking about? I've used SFX and it's not a real IR film. Also, I shoot mainly 8x10.
Ah! Perhaps you should try 35mm or 120, for a change.I shoot large format. I guess you didn't read that bit.

2. do you check if it makes sense to produce positive papers?
Dear Mirko,
I have two questions (maybe there were already these questions):
1. do you have Cibachrome formulas? - I have a lot of frozen papers and no chemistry and I am looking for a recipe to build P30 myself.
2. do you check if it makes sense to produce positive papers?
I will be obliged for your answer.
