Zone Imaging Eco Zonefix Plus 500ml
Zone Imaging Eco Zonefix Plus is a modern, eco-conscious rapid fixer designed for both black and white film and photographic paper. Supplied as a liquid concentrate, it offers excellent fixing performance with minimal odour, fast wash times, and a more user-friendly darkroom experience. Suitable for use with both conventional and staining developers, it is a versatile option for home darkrooms, schools, and professional labs alike.
Why We Like It
This is a very well thought-out fixer, especially for anyone working in shared spaces or education. The near odourless formula makes a noticeable difference compared to traditional fixers, and the neutral pH means you can simplify your process by using a water stop instead of an acid stop bath. It is also a great choice if you use staining developers, as it preserves image integrity while still fixing efficiently. Overall, it is a cleaner, more flexible alternative to older fixer formulas.
