This is extremely interesting, thank you for posting it. They must feel there is an adequate market for them to make the investment in equipment. I hope they are successful.
Among the products advertised is a monobath developer, Grant Haist researched monobath developers extensively, he wrote a book about them and also has a section in "Modern Photographic Processing" about them.

His book, "Modern Photographic Processing" was the last comprehensive book written on the subject, covering advanced material not found in earlier classics like C.E.K. Mees's books on photographic theory. There is an obit at
