Last updated: July 2026 dataUnperforated photographic film in the intermediate width range — over 105 mm but not exceeding 610 mm — serves both graphic arts production and general large-format photographic applications. The US schedule distinguishes graphic arts film (3702440130) from other unperforated film in this width band (3702440160), a split that reflects the different emulsion characteristics and end-use sectors involved. Japan leads US supply, followed by Germany, with China, the Philippines, and the United Kingdom also contributing.

Graphic arts film is typically characterized by high-contrast, orthochromatic or lith-type emulsions designed for reproduction of line art, halftones, and text in printing and prepress workflows. Film with continuous-tone or other general photographic emulsions in the same width range would fall under the NESOI line 3702440160. Importers uncertain about emulsion classification should obtain technical specifications from the manufacturer and consult a licensed customs broker.
The widespread adoption of computer-to-plate and digital printing technologies has significantly reduced demand for traditional graphic arts film. However, niche applications in specialty printing, archival reproduction, and certain industrial imaging processes continue to sustain a residual import market. Importers should monitor supplier availability, as the manufacturing base for these films has consolidated considerably.
