Ilford Photo is a manufacturer of photographic materials known worldwide for its black-and-white film and papers and chemicals, as previously as its range of Ilfochrome and Ilfocolor colour printing materials, before these were discontinued. Ilfochrome was formerly called Cibachrome, developed in partnership with the Swiss company CIBA-Geigy. Formerly, it published the ''Ilford Manual of Photography'', a comprehensive manual of everything photographic, including the optics, physics and chemistry of photography, along with recipes for many developers. == History ==
The company was founded in 1879 by Alfred Hugh Harman as the ''Britannia Works Company''.〔R J Hercock and G A Jones (1979), ''Silver by the Ton. A history of Ilford Ltd 1879-1979'', London: McGraw-Hill Book Company (UK) Ltd, 1979.〕 Initially making photographic plates, it grew to occupy a large site in the centre of Ilford. In 1902, it took the name of the town to become ''Ilford Limited'', despite the objections of the local council.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Ilford timeline )〕 In 1983, their UK headquarters was moved to Mobberley, Cheshire. In 1989, Ilford was acquired by the USA-based International Paper company, also owners of graphic arts materials manufacturer Anitec. The two companies were merged in 1990 to become ''Ilford Anitec''. In 1996, the sales and administration offices were also moved from London to Mobberley. In 2004, the company went into receivership. The UK site was subject to a management buyout, which resulted in the formation of Harman technology Ltd in February 2005. The company, now traded as Ilford Photo, produces high quality monochrome photographic products. The Swiss part of the company was bought by the Oji Paper Company of Japan in July 2005 and by Paradigm Global Partners LLP in May 2010. It produced inkjet products and high quality colour photographic products under the name Ilford Imaging Switzerland GmbH before being declared bankrupt on 9 December 2013.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.20min.ch/news/story/11591583 )〕 On 14 September 2015, Ilford Photo announced that Harman Technology was acquired by Pemberstone Ventures Limited for an undisclosed amount.
