RETO X-Protec Film Bag: Safeguard Your Film from Harmful Radiation

Are you worried about your precious film rolls being exposed to X-rays and damaged during airport security checks? It's one of the most common questions we get when people are travelling with film! So I have very good news: the RETO X-Ray Protection Film Bag offers peace of mind and hassle-free travel, ensuring your unprocessed film remains safe.* Also known as the X-Protec Bag from RETO.

Features:

X-ray resistance to damage when going through hand-checks at airports, and from atmospheric radiation while flying. Protect films at/or under ISO 800 from low-dose X-rays in carry-on luggage.
Duo layer design: water repellent CORDURA® fabric on the outside; lead-free, non-toxic fabric to block X-rays on the inside
Lightweight and durable
Different sizes for different uses (and lengths of trip!)
Mesh viewing from one side to quickly see what's inside

More Information:

Designed with a dual-layer fabric for ultimate protection, this case effectively shields your film from harmful radiation and moisture. The outer layer is crafted from durable CORDURA® Advanced Fabric, known for its water-repellency and resilience. The inner layer features a lead-free material, commonly used in the security and medical industries, providing superior X-ray protection while being lighter than traditional lead products.

Review based on experience in the details

I can’t verify whether this will protect your film but I can share my experience travelling with it. I’ve taken the bag on a few trips now and it hasn’t raised any concerns from being in my hand luggage. I always ask for a hand check and so far that hasn’t been a problem, the bag is my backup in case I have to put my films through. I do use the bag now though to store my films when travelling, just in case I forget. The quality of the bag is great so it’s a nice to keep them in there. My advice is to keep your films in a clear bag and ask for a hand check, keep the x-ray bag handy in case they say no and just pop the clear bag straight into the x-ray bag, put it in your hand luggage and see what happens 👍

Well made pouch

The pouch is sturdily made, with a Velcro fastening for the film part. There’s a net zip compartment too which is useful for other things.
My films survived a recent holiday to Tenerife using the pouch, although I was stopped both ways by airport security who seemed interested in what I was carrying. Whether it was the pouch they wouldn’t say!
Happy with the purchase.

Great product

My film has never felt so secure.

As heavy-duty as it gets

This is a quality product that with its weight and durability really matches the more analogue aesthetic and sturdiness of the film world. The material feels so thick, it could stop a bullet. Okay, maybe a bit of an exaggeration but it does feel like the bag could withstand a lot of beating. The only negative is that I wish I'd have gone for the larger size. The S one can hold only a few rolls and given you'd only want to take this with you when going abroad, chances are you'll want to pack more than 3-5 rolls.
