Other than Tetenal, which went kaputt, in EU the only manufacturers that I know of are:So where are Ilford sourcing their liquid developer from these days ? I thought it may have been Tetenal back along, but since the problems there, who currently makes Ilfotec HC etc for Ilford ? Anyone have any clue ? Champion perhaps ? The label says made in EU rather than made in Germany as before.
3) Fuji Hunt (but it's color)
Not exclusively. They do all sorts of stuff that we don't know about as (amateur) photographers.
I certainly wouldn't put it beyond them to contract manufacture Ilford's chemistry. Which is not to say I have any specific hint in this direction - just that it's a perfectly reasonable possibility.
It would be fun to SPY on these guys.
I suspect that the same is true, especially these days, of darkroom chemicals
I tweaked the thread title - because the old version made me want to link to: https://www.photomemorabilia.co.uk/Ilford/Chronology - Intro.html
I hope that is okay with @John Bragg
Well, Fuji Hunt is not in The Netherlands. Didn't Ilford use a mailbox address in Amsterdam for tax purposes?
Probably made at the Fuji Hunt Sint Niklaas plant in Belgium
or easier distribution to Europe (using Fuji warehousing capacity?).

Fuji Hunt generally has been active in OEM production of BW photo chemistry for others
Indeed, that's carefully formulated and consistent to what I know.
I often have to "carefully formulate" because of trust / responsibility to my sources and / or NDAs.
In any case:
We can be sure that Harman technology / Ilford photo will definitely cooperate with an excellent, very competent partner for their BW chemistry. We don't have to worry about quality.

These guys seem to carry ID-11 in Italy. https://fotomatica.it/shop/ricerca?controller=search&s=id-11I'm worried about availability. Id-11 is nowhere to be found in Italy...
