Set of three 16x20 inch developing trays made from chemical-resistant polypropylene with ribbed bases, thermometer holders and large pouring lips

  • Chemical-resistant polypropylene construction withstands harsh darkroom solutions
  • Base ribbing prevents warping and stops prints sticking to tray bottom
  • Patented thermometer holder keeps temperature gauge secure during development
  • Extra-large pouring lips enable controlled drainage of chemicals
  • Set of three trays sized for 16x20 inch prints

16x20" Developing Tray Set

This set supplies three large polypropylene trays sized for 16 by 20 inch prints. They serve darkroom workers in schools, colleges and professional labs who need reliable vessels for chemical processing. The trays are sold new and ready for immediate use.

Chemical-resistant polypropylene construction

The moulded polypropylene withstands the aggressive developers, stop baths and fixers used in traditional darkroom work. Ribbed bases add rigidity to resist warping under heavy, wet prints and stop paper from sticking to the tray floor. A built-in thermometer holder keeps the thermometer upright and out of the solution.

Three-tray workflow capacity

Three trays allow a complete develop, stop and fix sequence side by side. The extra-large pouring lips on each tray make it easy to decant chemistry without spills. The set does not suit prints larger than 16 by 20 inches or users who need more than three processing stages simultaneously.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 16x20 inch tray set or a different size?

This set provides three 16x20 inch trays made from robust polypropylene. The ribbed base adds rigidity to prevent warping under large prints and stops photographs from sticking to the bottom during processing.

How does the 16x20 inch size perform in a real darkroom workflow?

Each tray handles prints up to 16x20 inches with an extra-large pouring lip for easy chemical drainage. A built-in thermometer holder keeps the thermometer secure and out of the solution while you work.

What chemical resistance does the polypropylene construction provide?

The polypropylene material resists harsh photo-development chemicals for sustained use in educational or professional labs. The patented ribbed design also prevents prints from adhering to the tray base during agitation.
