Filmcol — Protective Packaging for X-Ray Film & Offset Plates
Engineered for film-processing stability, stiffness, and safe storage.
Safe for sensitive materials
Filmcol is made from pure, high-quality fibers suitable for direct contact with unexposed X-ray film and offset plates. Its chemical neutrality protects sensitive materials from contamination, discoloration and degradation.
Built for consistent film-processing
Engineered for stability, stiffness and controlled air permeability, Filmcol supports reliable handling and automatic darkroom processing. Fully compliant with the Photographic Activity Test (PAT), it ensures long-term preservation.
Safe for sensitive film
Pure, high-quality fibre board
Filmcol is made from high-purity fibres suitable for direct contact with unexposed X-ray film and offset plates, helping to prevent contamination, discoloration and image degradation.
Stable film-processing
Designed for automatic workflows
Engineered for dimensional stability and stiffness, Filmcol supports reliable handling and alignment in automatic darkroom processing equipment.
Controlled air permeability
Protection during storage
Optimized air permeability helps manage moisture while maintaining a protective environment for light-sensitive materials in storage.
Photographic Activity Test compliant

Sustainability. It’s in our nature.
Closing the Water Loop
95% reused, 5% purified in our treatment plant
We reuse 95% of our process water and purify the remaining 5% in our own treatment plant before it returns to nature.
Solar-Powered Mobility
Electric fleet, charged by the sun
Our solar panels power a fully electric fleet of company cars, cutting emissions from day-to-day operations.
Community Heat Recovery
Sharing residual heat locally
Leftover production heat is recovered and used to warm nearby facilities, providing sustainable comfort to our community.
Clean Process Heat
eBoiler powered by electricity
A new eBoiler replaces fossil fuel heat with clean electric energy to run our production process.
