HIGH TRANSPARENCY

ZeonorFilm exhibits high transparency (92% light

transmittance) and excellent turbidity (haze value <0.1%),

for enhanced brightness.

HIGH TRANSPARENCY

INERT SURFACE

ZeonorFilm is manufactured from Zeon’s cyclo olefi n

polymer (COP). COP is known for its excellent optical

properties and also for being a high-purity resin.

ZeonorFilm has an inert surface which makes it ideal

for sensitive bio-diagnostic devices.
