Microfilm future production

In February 2025 we made the announcement that Fujifilm planned to discontinue the manufacturing of silver microfilm and that Genus had an alternative microfilm in place. Six months later it is time for an update on the situation.

Fujifilm are accepting last orders in December 2025. As the exclusive master distributor for Fujifilm microfilm for EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa) and the main distributor for Asia and South America, Genus have been given a very generous allocation of films that we can purchase all the way until December 2025.

However, we do advise you to contact us and place orders before December 2025 in order to ensure this allocation does not run out on various products. We will be holding some stocks but we advise that you hold your own stocks too. Anything not ordered by December 2025 will not be available any longer.

The good news is that the Genus Ozaphan replacement film is going very well. Our plan is to offer replacements for all 8 Fujifilm products as well as two more microfilm products, which are being manufactured and are available for immediate sale.
