The plant in question, as I noted, was not one purchased from anyone. It was built from scratch.
Film will indeed be made in the US or England.
It doesn't really make sense for Kodak to sell their plant in China and move their facility to the US or UK. Isn't it much cheaper to maintain and hire help for factories outside of developed countries?
Well they could have done that with mercury batteries too, instead we are left with crappy batteries. My house is electrically heated, I don't like fluorescent light so I will stockpile bulbs. I wonder what they are going to light streets with.The recycling of compact flourescents is a problem that is easily solved by attaching a deposit fee to every single one...or better yet, a lower price for a dead lamp's replacement when it's returned to the merchant for recycling. The cost of such a system could be underwritten by a consortium of manufacturers and major resellers in the name of acquiring market share and public relations.

Hi all !
...Kodak will close all plants; one after the other but none in the USA. USA worker will be the last to be fired.
Era seem to be still going and have a website with their products listed which includes black & white film in 35mm & sheet sizes.
Now, nobody speaks about the need of having to exchange many, many fittings. CFLs, fittings, etc. are products the industry, even in the long run, will have higher margins on than on those standard bulbs...Oh... In Europe there is plan that up to some year (2012 or 2018 or 2020, I don't know precisely), all TV broadcasting will be digital. Nobody will ask you can you afford or do you want in first place digital TV receiver. If you want TV programmes, you will have to have digital TV. Same with lighting. If you want light, change fittings for available bulbs, nobody will ask you do you want new bulbs (or new fittings for them) or not. manufacturers and governments will force you to do that.
No worries. I've been called a lot worse!Sorry for that misspelling.
(Where I'm around I come across a lot of guys called Bart but never met an Art...)
Is this thread about Kodak and Chinese film manufacturing plants or is it about tungsten filament light bulb bans?
Regards, Art.
PE,
I was not referring to someone from Kodak China, but just a `plain´ Apugger from China.
