Tura AG was a German distributor and manufacturer of film and paper products. The factory was established as Bergmann & Co. in 1901. Located in the western part of Germany in the town of Düren. It was renamed Turaphot after the second world war. They are mostly known for being a private label manufacturer. They would often repackage photo products from leading companies like Ilford and Agfa. They would work with small and large companies to make their house film and paper, with custom packaging and labeling.

In 1999, CPAC Inc, of Leicester, New York joins in a partnership that allows photographic chemicals to be distributed under the Tura name.[1] Around 2004-2005, during the bankruptcy and reorganizations of both Agfaphoto and Ilford, Tura's main film and paper suppliers, they were unable to fulfill orders. During this period Agfa started doing their own private label business and Ilford now under Harmon Technology stopped their private label programme.

Photo Star currently (2012) has the rights to the Tura brand.
