ADOX CMS 20 only 135 in supply?

[captain ZZM]

When early spring my friend who only shoot medium format asked me to help him to buy some ADOX CMS 20 120 film, but l checked online shop (Silver Print, MACO) they all showed “sold out” for 120 and 135 at selling. Today l checked again, the 120 film still sold out. Are there too many people buying 120 film or they are no longer supply?

It's just not available at this time. I'd offer to sell you mine but I only have 4x5... sorry.

A recent video from Adox [] seems to suggest that they have been repairing their cutting machine. Once that is up and running, expected by late summer, CMS 20 should be back in 120 format. I'm waiting for it too!

Be patient....
I am waiting for this film since November 2017.

No doubt that Mirko's team will resolve all the encountered issues.

Adox is facing two major issues at the moment: some suppliers are no longer available, the same time the coming of age of the plant to become a more independant manufacture with all major steps done in house is a slow process, especially with two locations involved.
A product running out of stock in this stage means it will take time to get in production again.
