YOUR CHALLENGE:

Using too much refining has unintended and negative consequences.

Operators need to make specification or risk rejected production. Without a better alternative, they resort to refining to achieve the desired tensile.

DID YOU KNOW?

Meeting tensile targets this way causes many downstream negatives that cannot be recovered and can cascade into further problems which must be managed at extra cost.

SO WHAT?

Tissue makers are then pushed to remedy these issues in costly ways:

Sheet breaks remedied with more long fiber or DSR, slowing reel speeds, blade changes and added basis weight.
Reduced absorbency and bulk remedied with over-sheeting, increased crepe, lost productivity, fiber substitution initiatives, etc.
Dusting managed via increased cleanups, retention programs, capital investment.

THE SOLUTION:

Get the tensile you need without fiber cutting and fines.

Reducing fiber cutting and fines means fewer customer complaints and reduced risk of operational fires. You have less sheet densification, better drainage and drying, and improved bulk and absorbency, with increased potential for both quality and productivity. The bulk can be leveraged to reduce basis weight, eliminate over sheeting, reduce crepe ratio or make a higher quality product. The strength can be used to reduce softwood or increase recycled fiber.

HERE’S WHAT YOU NEED TO DO TO MAKE IT HAPPEN:

MODIFY FIBERS IN A WAY THAT REDUCES FINES GENERATION AND SHEET STIFFENING

Maximyze® Fiber Modification Enzyme works at the molecular level to sculpt the fiber, allowing for fibrillation of the fiber at lower refining energy. This results in more hydrogen bonding sites without creating fines via fiber cutting.
