  • Suitable for standard processing and toning in darkrooms or labs
  • 16x20x5 inch tray fits large-format prints with ample depth

Essential Darkroom Chemistry Tray

The CescoLite Plastic Print Developing Tray measures 16 by 20 by 5 inches and is moulded from heavyweight high-impact plastic. Its flat bottom ensures even chemical distribution across the full surface. The material resists corrosion even in a 58% acetic acid solution, making it suitable for standard processing and toning work in both home darkrooms and professional labs.

Amateur and Lab Photographers

This tray suits photographers who develop prints up to 16x20 inches and need a chemically resistant, flat-bottom vessel that will not warp. It is not for users who require larger format capacity, integrated temperature control, or automatic agitation systems. Buyers needing multiple stacked trays for colour processing sequences should also look elsewhere.

Flat-Bottom Chemical Resistance

The defining specification is the flat-bottom design combined with verified resistance to a 58% acetic acid solution. This construction guarantees uniform chemistry depth and prevents the density variations caused by warped or ribbed trays. If your workflow depends on consistent toning or archival processing, this tolerance level is the deciding factor.

Questions about this item

Which size of the CescoLite developing tray should I choose for 16x20 inch prints?

The tray measures 16 by 20 inches with a 5 inch depth, matching standard 16x20 print dimensions and holding enough chemistry for full coverage.

What does the 58 percent acetic acid resistance mean when I am mixing stop bath?

It means the high-impact plastic will not degrade or leach when used with standard stop-bath concentrations up to 58 percent acetic acid.

How does the flat bottom affect chemical distribution during development?

The flat bottom keeps the developer layer at a uniform depth across the whole 16x20 surface, preventing uneven development or streaks.
