After 21 years of dedicated service, it’s time to bid farewell to a beloved member of the Avon Studios family—our trusty Fujifilm Frontier digital photolab. Installed at our studio over two decades ago, this machine has been a cornerstone of our business, producing an incredible 1.3 million photo prints for our valued customers. It’s one of the last remaining Fujifilm Frontiers in the UK, a testament to its reliability, precision, and the cherished memories it helped bring to life.
A Legacy of Excellence
When we first installed the Fujifilm Frontier, it was at the cutting edge of photographic technology. Back then, it revolutionised the way we processed photos, providing unparalleled quality that kept our customers coming back year after year. From cherished family portraits to wedding albums and holiday snaps, this machine has seen it all. It’s been with us through countless moments of joy, preserving them with the care and quality that only a Professional Photolab could deliver.
A New Era Begins: Introducing Our State-of-the-Art Drylab
As we say goodbye to our faithful Frontier lab, we’re excited to announce the arrival of our new state-of-the-art Drylab. This revolutionary piece of technology marks a new chapter for Avon Studios, bringing with it a host of benefits that we’re thrilled to offer our customers.
One of the most significant advantages of our new Drylab is its environmental impact. Unlike traditional wet labs that require chemicals for processing, the Drylab uses no chemicals at all. This makes it a much greener option, reducing our environmental footprint while still delivering stunning prints. It also uses 80% less energy than our previous machine, aligning with our commitment to sustainability without compromising on quality.
Enhanced Printing Experience: Quality and Convenience
But the benefits don’t stop there. We’ve also upgraded our photo kiosk, making it easier than ever for you to print your photos directly from your mobile phone. Whether you’re printing a few snapshots to frame or a full album, our new system ensures you receive the best quality prints available, with vibrant colours and sharp details that capture the essence of your memories.
The Drylab offers remarkable speed and efficiency, allowing us to provide high-quality prints while you wait. Gone are the days of leaving your photos and coming back hours later; with our new setup, you can have your prints ready in just a few minutes. This means more convenience for you, whether you’re in a rush or simply excited to see your photos come to life.
Leading the Way in Coventry and Warwickshire
We’re proud to be the first studio in the West Midlands to install this revolutionary professional printer. At Avon Studios, we’ve always strived to stay ahead of the curve, offering our customers the latest and greatest in photographic technology. This new Drylab is no exception, and we’re confident it will set a new standard for photo printing in the Stratford upon Avon district.
A Heartfelt Goodbye and a Bright Future
As we retire our Fujifilm Frontier, we do so with a sense of nostalgia and gratitude. It has served us—and you—exceptionally well over the years. But as we embrace this new technology, we’re excited about what the future holds. Our commitment to quality, service, and innovation remains as strong as ever, and we can’t wait to continue helping you preserve your memories for many years to come.
Thank you for support and being part of this incredible journey with us. We look forward to welcoming you to Avon Studios to experience the next generation of photo printing. Whether you’re printing from your phone or bringing in cherished old negatives, slides or prints, we’re here to help you create beautiful photo prints that you’ll treasure forever.
Here’s to the next million prints!
