Just got a personal call from Frank Green of the Lab (Lab-Ciba) to make sure I received the prints and everything was good, plus a little personal talk relating to the photo I sent in.

That's amazing customer service and in fact it exceeds that; it's just being good to your fellow man (or woman). Can't recommend him highly enough.

This is an old thread, but I am looking into getting some slides printed right now (2017!) and I am wondering if anyone has an updated list of the labs that still do Ilfochrome and/or people who have paper for sale... I just got an email back from Frank from Lab-Ciba (www.lab-ciba.com/pricelist.html) so he is definitely still doing it and it is good to hear that he provides such great service! Just wondering if anyone in Europe is still doing it? I spend most of the year in California but am in Belgium now... I'm actually from the town where Agfa has/had its factory!

a quick internet search turned up this lab in france.

good to hear Lab-Ciba is still optically printing slides using Cibachrome -- very high quality work and Frank is a pleasure to work with. i would have thought that process was now extinct given that materials have not been produced for a number of years. now i will have to have some prints made from recent shots as well as some old family slides that have come into my possession... while i still can.

Hmm the price list states that he is no longer accepting orders for Cibachrome

In Moscow classic gallery (http://classicgallery.ru/laboratoriya/cvetnaya-pechat-cibachrome) still processing cibachrome now.
The prices (when converted to Euro or Dollar) are not that much. Worth a try

Are they still active? Dropped a mail some days ago but had no answer and their main email address is disabled.

I haven't tried yet. I was planning to write them an e-mail in Russian this week. I wonder if they still do it.

I also contacted Studio 13 in Stuttgart who supposedly did Ilfochrome, but today I received a mail that they stopped doing it. So far I only found this Moscow gallary and the Lab-Ciba who still do Ilfochrome
