This fixer was designed for optimal fixing for film, RC, and FB papers with fast washing out times with both conventional non-staining film/paper developers and pyro/catechol based staining film developers.

It boasts long shelf life, high capacity, compatible with soft to very hard tap water up to a hardness of 500ppm, and easy transport for travelling to suit all consumers’ needs.

This fixer is sodium thiosulphate based and free from: borate derivatives, non-biodegradable DPTA and EDTA, phosphates, acetic acid, known carcinogens and mutagens to make it more friendly to the environment.

By having little odour, this fixer will provide a more pleasant working environment in the darkroom. The slight alkaline nature of the fixer makes film more resistant to over-fixing and fast washing out for film and paper without a need for hypo-clear.

An acid stop bath is not required and water stop is perfectly sufficient meaning less chemicals are required.

By being non-hardening, this fixer allows for easier bleaching and toning when printing.

The powder has been formulated and packaged in a way to minimise dust entering the air when pouring the contents to make it more user friendly and meet standards for educational institutions.
