Forte will keep producing (for a while, at least...)

Just heard the good news from the head of FotoImpex, that Hungarian B&W materials company will keep up production (the slipped into insolvency, and it was not sure whether they would go on). They will have to reduce their staff and their range of products, but at least Polywarmtone paper (one of my favorites for lith printing) will be kept in production (as long as the cash flow is positive...)

I heard that they lost money on 3rd party film sales that were rebranded, for example some of the arista.EDU stuff from Freestyle here in the U.S.

YAY! Forte's fibre based polywarmtone is favourite of mine too. I'm also keeping my fingers crossed that Agfa dosen't do anything silly for while.
