nyloflex® ACT 254

nyloflex® ACT 254 Overview

• More open intermediate depths, finer highlight dots and less dot gain, i.e. larger range of tonal values therefore improved contrast
• Increased productivity and data transfer without loss of quality due to digital workflow
• Consistency in quality when repeating plate processing
• Cost-effective and more environmentally friendly in processing, as no film is required

Benefits
