Description: The Harrow factory is Kodak's largest and oldest in the UK. It was opened in 1896 and is currently used for the manufacture Ektacolor photographic paper and a wide range of graphics film materials for the printing and publishing industry. Graphics research and development is also carried out at the plant. Much of the land around the site is disused and, as at the Autumn of 2011, Harrow Council is making plans for its future. On 19 January 2012 the parent company, the 131-year-old firm of Eastman Kodak based in Rochester in New York State, stated that it had filed for bankruptcy protection. What does that bode for the future of the Harrow factory?
