Cinelab Romania is the most modern and well-equipped postproduction lab in Europe, which offers a high quality film processing service and provide enhanced digital solutions.

It is the first Kodak lab for processing film in a 100 years of Eastman Kodak existence. It opened in Romania in 1999, and the model was replicated in 10 other countries. In the past five years, the lab reinvented itself and developed some niche services like digital-film-digital or restoration and conservation. The lab works on several market levels: feature films, shorts, documentaries, ad, television, distribution and digitizing.
