Less Impact on the Environment
Disposal regulations and procedures for “wet” processing chemistry are
time-consuming and expensive. And even with the most exacting procedures, the
potential to discharge hazardous materials into the environment exists.
Tests show that DryView Laser Imaging film is not considered hazardous to the
environment. As a result, you can develop, recycle, and dispose of films with less
impact on the environment than if you were using wet developed silver halide films.
