In need of UV protection for your plastic films and coated or printed surfaces?

Have we got a solution for you.

NANOX™ 200 Nano Zinc Oxide provides superior UV spectrum protection with little or no effect on transparency and gloss.

Much as we all love the sun, let’s face it. Exposure to UV light causes problems. Food, drink, and pharmaceutical and personal care packaging can fade and discolor through exposure to UV radiation from either sunlight or fluorescent store lighting. And the products inside degrade sooner than they should.

NANOX^™200 blocks UVB and UVA rays. It not only keeps the packaging looking good, it protects the product and extends its shelf life.

On the bright side, NANOX^™200 is a safer alternative. It’s FDA-approved for food-contact plastics and can be used in consumer and industrial applications—including printed plastic food packaging and paper packaging. And its nano-size zinc oxide disperses easily in thin film applications.
