Mission

Your photographic chemistry shop

Who is Conservatorio Fotochimica?

A group that deals with research, experimentation, and the creation of products for analog photography.

A disseminator of knowledge, free and available to help people who approach the practice.

A chemistry manufacturer that tests products by updating processes on modern papers and films, basing the research on the manuals of Agfa, Kodak and Ilford, as well as on the studies of photochemists of the past such as Ghedina and Feininger.

We want to make our knowledge, based on decades of tests and experiments, accessible to all who want to support our project.

We want to help artist photographers by transforming analog photography into a simple practice, with prices accessible to all.

Our principles

  1. 01

    Simplicity and safety of use

    Simple instructions without the need for technical knowledge, accompanied by safety procedures explained with simple operating rules.

  2. 02

    Small volumes and zero waste

    Packaged on a human scale and not for an industrial process: with this philosophy waste is eliminated and it's more fun to experiment with all the products available.

  3. 03

    Easy to carry

    The products are made from concentrated solutions and powders, divided, weighed, and ready to use. This allows small volumes to be shipped with a large capacity.

  4. 04

    Maximum shelf life

    The products are designed and manufactured for a shelf life three times higher than the products currently on the market.

  5. 05

    Quality guarantee

    The substances are sealed in special bags and every production batch is verified with field tests before being put on the market.

  6. 06

    Eco friendly

    The packaging is 100% recyclable. The CO2 emissions of the shipments are 100% compensated.
