Everything we do to keep a lab modernised.
Three parts, one remote-first delivery model. Book a consultation and we'll tell you honestly which of these is the right first move for your lab.
Infrastructure
The network and server foundation everything else in your lab runs on — designed, installed, and monitored remotely.
Networking & firewalls
Firewall, switches, and Wi-Fi designed for a lab's actual traffic — scanner throughput, order systems, and staff devices on one clean network.
VPN & remote access
Secure remote access set up once, so future support never means someone driving to site.
NAS & servers
Storage and server infrastructure sized for a growing archive, with automated backups from day one.
24/7 uptime monitoring
We see a fault before your operators do. Alerts route straight to us, not into a void.
Software
From keeping existing scanners alive to the workflow software connecting labs and photographers.
SP3000 & SP500 virtualisation
Your scanner's control software moved off failing Windows XP hardware onto a modern, monitored Linux host — zero downtime, automated daily backups, installed entirely remotely. Our most requested service.
Scanner reliability enhancements
Ongoing improvements to keep an ageing scanner host stable long after the migration — patched, monitored, and backed up.
Bromura
Cloud-hosted order and workflow management, built for how film labs actually run — connecting labs and the photographers they shoot for on one board, from intake to delivery.
Custom bespoke systems
When off-the-shelf isn't the answer, we build it from scratch — like the kiosk system we built for L'Instant Lab in Paris to automate their scanning and distribution.
What's next
We're extending that same lab-first engineering into more of the software a growing lab and its photographers run on day to day — scoped with each lab, not shipped as a generic add-on.
Process engineering
The physical side of running a lab — building new capacity and converting what you already have.
New darkroom builds
Full darkroom builds for labs adding capacity or standing up a new site.
Space transformations
Turning an existing space into a working darkroom or processing area without starting from scratch.
BW processor conversions
Converting C-41 machines (Noritsu, AGFA) to black-and-white chemistry — extending equipment life and adding a revenue stream most labs haven't tapped yet.
Custom processor builds
Purpose-built processors with modern electronics — for labs whose needs don't fit an off-the-shelf machine, converted or new.
