For what it's worth, my 7 boxes of LF and ULF CHS II shipped within days, even though they were marked as out of stock. No idea about paper but at least the film part of ADOX seems to be very active.

I'm in on the Lupex, 8x10 and 11x14. Any chance of a annual special size run? I would love to see 4x5 inch sheets packaged in 50 sheet boxes. Kodak used to make a special holiday greeting card size with litho negative masks and a window to place your 6x9 negative. That size maybe too much to ask, but a 4x5 cut sheet that would make for easy 4x5 contact prints where you can see the notches etc.We are working extremely hard on bringing LUPEX and MCC back to the market, and Polywarmtone onto the market. Fortunately we have just recently succeeded with LUPEX: The coating run went well. We are currently waiting on the shipment of the new boxes. When they arrive, we can cut and package the paper, and it will be available for our customers again. That will probably be the case in some weeks.
With Polywarmtone and MCC all the needed tests and R&D are continuing. Design and production of such complicated and sophisticated silver-halide products is extremely difficult and complex. And as a very young "start-up" we only have a very small team of chemists and engineers. So please be patient.
Your support and loyalty is really very appreciated! Thank you very much!

This is great news!
I've been waiting with baited breath to get my hands on more MCC paper, as well as their new coatings, and hope to get my hands on it as soon as it is available. Loving the chemistry, just need the paper to match; thanks Adox for keeping this Agfa fan, happy - I only wish we had a supplier here in Australia that was willing to stock the full range of products . . .
I do remember an article in a photography magazine (maybe a year ago?) about Lina Bessanova visiting the coating facility and getting presented with the “first box” of Polywarmtone.
That article left me with the impression, that Polywarmtone should have hit the market quite some time ago, as everything was ready and coating had started.
So what is missing for the long awaited Polywarmtone relaunch? People are eager to buy ...
I am still hoping for the B&W reversal kit. Unfortunately, I have heard rumors that mounts for 35mm slides are now in short supply. Hopefully, that doesn't work against B&W reversal chemistry.
I really want to shoot their films but so few are available in 120. I may opt for the 5x7 though. I do hope they work out their supply issues, because they have a lot of interesting products to offer.

Well that's a loaded question. Sounds like you are actually responding to a customer request, how unusualHow much 4x5" sheets of LUPEX do you need?

I put this question to ADOX a few years ago and Mirco answered that 220 film require a special anti-scratch coating on the back side as it is not protected by the backing paper. Perhaps a coating on all 120/220 film could solve this but it may be a litle complicated and the cost may increase.when producing 120(61.5mm) you could at the same time offer 30m rolls. so we could cut 220 or longer rolls. assembling 220 not that difficult. Maybe too much asked. 120 much more important. one could stitch also 2x 120.
Thanks, this is an area where Adox could have a distinct difference from others. I have used big shears in a former employer's print shop. We turned out all the lights, used the red "Exit" signs for safelighting. In about 10 minutes we cut 100 sheets of DW Azo F2 11 x 14 into 800 3 1/2 × 5 1/2 postcard size. We didn't face the challenges a company like Adox would, we didn't have to package etc. We had a free skilled person and free enormous shear.@mshchem :
So you need at least 100 sheets of 4x5". We will look into it with our confectioning engineer whether it may be possible. We will reply when we have a definite answer, please stay tuned.

Our new ADOX Scala BW reversal kit is coming soon, in the next weeks.
And are...?And slide mounts for 35mm are no problem at all, several manufacturers are producing them.
With Adox Silvermax/Scala being not produced anymore (and available while stocks last), will the kit be usable with other films?

Assembling own 220 not too difficult? Possible, but it's far more challenging than own 120 as leader and trailer paper must be attached perfectly square to film.when producing 120(61.5mm) you could at the same time offer 30m rolls. so we could cut 220 or longer rolls. assembling 220 not that difficult.

Reflecta and Kaiser are the same, and probably Ap too.
the word 'soon' is used too often when it comes to analog product announcements;makes me feel doubtful.I haven't seen it in stock since earlier this year, Firstcall, where Ib get all my paper from, has none in stock, they do say coming soon, I used a lot of the Adox MCC paper, and I got the last box that was in stock in in January, and when I asked them about further stocks they said that as soon as it was available they would get more, it was on order, but they were waiting on Adox, at AG it is said to be out of stock, also Silverprint has it as waiting for further supplies, sad, it was indeed a lovely paper, but hopefully it will be back, also I doubt that the Covid situation is helping with Lockdowns Ect, maybe next year? In the meantime there is always Foma paper, good range in both FB and RC, easily a match for Ilford and Adox
I can't seem to find Adox Easy Print paper anywhere, is Adox still producing it?
Also, what's the perspective regarding the RA4 kit? I've just started printing and the Adox kit is really convenient, it would be really nice if there was color paper available again from Adox, cut down from rolls.
