It started with Pro Image 100…

Poly Film Labs started with a simple punt on a roll of Pro Image 100 and a Pentax MX. Keen to try out film after shooting digitally for quite a while after that first roll, we were hooked.

That single roll of Pro Image 100 quickly led to a foray into Super 8, 16mm and hand processing. As our passion for film, the colours and the cathartic development process exploded so did our need to make it more affordable.

Realising others were probably in the same boat, it seemed the logical thing to do was to make it more affordable for everyone.

That was the birth of the idea that would eventually morph into Poly Film Labs.

Looking back it’s incredible how far we have come, from a single paterson tank to multiple commercial photolab processors / scanners, a motion picture film scanner and a motion picture film processor being readied to enter service.

Poly Film Labs are here to provide the film community with an affordable and reliable option for photo and motion picture film formats.

Our passion is film, and we believe getting it into more hands, more cameras and more affordably underpins it’s longevity.
