I can't remember all these minor details from Kodak being mentioned here - only the news that TP 'will be discontinued'. Apologies if you've seen it before.
'The last Tech Pan coating was several years ago. Since that time, the old coating room has been shut down, the gels used in the product formulation have become obsolete, and we no longer manufacture the ESTAR support on which the 35 mm product was coated. There would be considerable cost to recreate the product, with no guarantee that it would look and act the same as the Tech Pan Film of old.
So there you go.
