Our expert Gordon Bugg helps paper and board manufacturers in North America meet demand for recyclable, fiber-based packaging thanks to his deep understanding of barrier coatings.
For Elisabeth Lackinger-Csarmann, finding biobased alternatives to fossil-based raw materials in chemicals is a chance to add on to the renewable nature of paper and board materials. Developing new chemistry takes time, effort – and curiosity.
Strength is the most important quality characteristic for packaging board. As the use of recycled fibers as raw material in packaging grades increases, many board producers are facing challenges in meeting the strength targets. Why?
How does the KemConnect Predictive Wet End service help prevent runnability and quality issues? Find out the answer to this and other common questions about our new digital service in this article.
If you are aiming for cost-efficient production of high-quality recycled board, optimizing dry strength properties is crucial. In this webinar, our experts share their insights on optimizing strength in recycled fibers.
Here you can find answers to 10 commonly asked questions about FennoGuard GO, the sustainable and safe barrier solution for fiber-based food packaging.
The microbiology of recycled fiber processes has been unknown territory in the pulp and paper industry. Now, after a pioneering research, Kemira R&D has created unique tools to identify and quantify the different bacteria in the recycled containerboard process – to catch and control the real troublemakers.
Dispersion barrier coatings enable sustainable and safe paper and board packaging – our expert shares 3 ways how.
In a hygienic board mill, an outbreak of bacterial spores always results in off-spec production, machine downtime, and financial losses. That’s why a high-performing spore control program is crucial.
Kemira’s new digital service for the pulp and paper industry, Kemira Predictive Wet End, helps paper, board and tissue producers to predict and prevent process disturbances at their machines. But why focusing on wet end chemistry management pays off?
