It is crystal clear, has excellent resistance to common household cleaners, and resists curling, delaminating, and yellowing when exposed to heat.</br></br>Eastman Renew polymers have been certified by International Sustainability & Carbon Certification (ISCC), a global, independent agency for tracking sustainable content in a variety of industries.
