Shape, reduce and refine with greater control using the Tropical Shine Eco-File 100/180 Coarse/Medium. Part of the more sustainable Tropical Shine Eco-File collection, this professional-quality nail file combines two useful grit levels with a durable core made from compressed recycled paper.

The file features a 100/180 grit combination, giving you a coarse surface for more intensive filing and a medium surface for controlled refining. This makes it a versatile option for professional nail technicians who need both stronger product reduction and a smoother finishing stage within the same file.

Unlike many conventional nail files that use a plastic core, the Tropical Shine Eco-File has been designed with sustainability in mind. Its compressed recycled-paper core provides the durability expected from a professional tool while reducing reliance on plastic. The file is also designed to be 100% recyclable.

Dual 100/180 Grit Design

The Tropical Shine Eco-File 100/180 combines two distinctly different grit levels in one practical professional file.

The 100-grit side provides a stronger, coarser filing action, while the 180-grit side offers a medium surface for more controlled shaping and refinement.

100 Grit for Coarse Filing

The 100-grit side is designed for situations where more intensive filing is required.

Its coarser abrasive surface can help reduce bulk and reshape suitable nail products more efficiently, making it particularly useful during services that require stronger filing action.

180 Grit for Refining

The 180-grit side provides a medium filing surface that is useful for refining and smoothing after the heavier work has been completed.

This allows the technician to move from stronger reduction to more controlled shaping without immediately needing to switch to another file.

Professional High-Performance Design

The Tropical Shine Eco-File collection is designed to provide the professional performance and durability expected from salon nail files while incorporating more sustainable materials.

This makes the file suitable for busy professional environments where consistent filing performance is important throughout regular nail services.

Compressed Recycled Paper Core

The file's core is made from compressed recycled paper, replacing the plastic centre commonly used in traditional nail files.

The material is designed to provide the rigidity required during filing while helping reduce the use of plastic within frequently replaced salon consumables.

Designed Without a Plastic Core

By removing the conventional plastic centre, the Tropical Shine Eco-File offers a more environmentally considered approach to a frequently used nail essential.

The recycled-paper core still provides the strength and stability required for professional shaping and filing.

100% Recyclable

The Eco-File is designed to be 100% recyclable, giving salons and nail professionals another option when looking to reduce plastic-heavy consumables.

Always follow local recycling regulations and appropriate professional hygiene procedures when disposing of used files.

Ideal for Professional Nail Technicians

The combination of coarse and medium grit surfaces makes this file particularly useful where several stages of shaping are required within one service.

The technician can use the 100-grit side for heavier reduction before switching to the 180-grit side for greater control and refinement.

Useful for Nail Enhancement Services

The stronger 100-grit surface makes this file well suited to appropriate nail enhancement services where a coarser abrasive is required.

The 180-grit side then provides a useful next step for refining the overall shape before moving on to any finer finishing stages required by the service.

A More Sustainable Salon Essential

Nail files are regularly used and replaced in professional salons, making them an obvious area where more sustainable materials can make a difference.

The Tropical Shine Eco-File offers a straightforward way to introduce a more environmentally conscious option into everyday nail services while retaining professional functionality.

How to Use the Tropical Shine Eco-File 100/180

1. Assess the nail surface and choose the appropriate grit for the service.
2. Use the 100-grit side where stronger filing or product reduction is required.
3. Work gradually with controlled movements and avoid unnecessary pressure.
4. Switch to the 180-grit side for more controlled shaping and refinement.
5. Check the nail frequently to maintain the desired shape and avoid over-filing.
6. Progress to a finer file if additional smoothing is needed.
7. Replace the file when the abrasive surface becomes worn or ineffective.
8. Recycle or dispose of according to local requirements and professional hygiene procedures.

Important: The 100-grit side is coarse and should only be used where appropriate for the nail surface and service being performed. Avoid aggressive filing on thin, weak or damaged natural nails. Do not use on painful, broken or infected nail areas, and always follow appropriate professional hygiene procedures.
