Harman Technologies committed a “multi-million-pound” investment into its film manufacturing capabilities and says it is now one of the largest and “most active” film production, research, and development businesses on the planet.
“Film photography is a passion, not just a hobby, for millions of people across the world. Analogue cameras and skills have been passed down through generations, and we’re seeing new people fall in love with film photography every day. However, users have limited choice and manufacturers are battling old machinery and processes, and replacement parts that just don’t exist anymore.
Harman says that the investment comes after what it describes as the “hugely successful” launch of Harman Phoenix 200, the first-ever color film made entirely from emulsion-to-casette at its Mobberly factory. “This type of equipment has not been commissioned by film manufacturers since the 1990s. So, the team has had to start from scratch, designing the equipment from the ground up, introducing modern standards of throughput and automation,” David Jenkinson, Harman’s operations director, says.
