Write first reviewSilverchrome BW Wash Aid is a standard thiosulfate eliminator. It is primarily used to aid the rapid washing of all black-and-white films but in particular fiber-based papers, saving both water and time. Compared to Ilford Washaid, this concentrate has a slower action but a greater capacity.
After several restructurings within the originally British company Ilford and the bankruptcy of the Swiss branch of the company in 2013, the brand name Ilford Imaging and trade rights were acquired by the Australian company CR Kennedy & Company Pty Ltd and the Japanese company Chugai Photo Chemical Company. Following the acquisition, Ilford Imaging focused primarily on the high quality inkjet paper market through an affiliate in Germany since 2014. Since 2020, the company also wants to market its expertise in analog printing processes and traditional photochemistry under the new name Silverchrome. This gave rise to the launch of a first paper series called Flexgrade for which raw materials are sourced from Germany by the now acquired Tecco and a range of photo chemicals produced by Chugai Photo in Japan. These products are in no way related to the traditional analog photo products marketed by Harman under the name Ilford. Silverchrome is a new analog photo brand marketed by players with a long history in the industry.
