APPLICATIONS

Packaging, graphic paper, composite, non-woven, specialty paper, the Paperlink machines and expertise are capable of producing a very wide range of fibrous products.

These finished products are in our everyday lives: packing boxes, teabags, coffee pods, decorative paper, wallpaper, water filtration. They accompany us in our morning reading, when paying at the supermarket, wrapping presents for our loved ones and in the bathroom.

PACKAGING

Board is used the most often for packaging. It is used more than glass or plastic. Flexible, recyclable, board is used in different forms: corrugated board, Kraft paper used for paper bags, brown paper for classical wrapping, packing board. Multiple use packing board: to protect goods during transport, as a communication aid or simply to promote a brand. The “construction” requirements for packaging therefore differ hugely from one use to another.

Especially as packaging represents half of the world’s paper consumption!

    LINER AND FLUTING

    To produce corrugated board such as liner and fluting, Paperlink uses semi-chemical pulp or a mix of recycled paper. From recycled board, Paperlink machines design and manufacture corrugated paper used for folding board lining for example.

    Paperlink machines are optimized in order to reduce energy (electricity and steam) and water consumption as much as possible.

    CORE BOARD

    This board is used for various applications where the quality of printing isn’t important. It is mainly used for producing tubes and spools for hygiene, battery and fabric paper industries. It is used for making consumer goods such as puzzles and games.

    This board can create partitions for packaging, box dividers or slip-sheets.

    FOLDING BOARD

    Perfume boxes, yoghurt pot packaging, pastry boxes, pharmaceutical boxes, folding boxes play a part in the consumer’s everyday life. Its industrial and practical qualities have won over numerous sectors. Folding board, whether for mass consumption or retail products, promotes brands, shows the products at their best, highlights offers, informs the consumer and efficiently packs the products.

GRAPHIC PAPERS

Despite the digital revolution, graphic papers: newspapers, magazines and copy paper (photocopiers), are not over yet. Newspaper is mostly produced from recycled paper. Magazine paper requires a better quality but proves to be made more and more from recycled paper too.

Paperlink works around the clock to improve the process technology for the production of graphic papers.

    PRINTING AND WRITING

    Printing papers, used for magazines, catalogues, newspapers, books, can contain (or not) wood or is said to be (or not) coated paper.

    Writing paper is used to make notebooks, stationery and drawing pads.

  • GRAPHIC PAPERS

    COATED PAPERS

    Used for mail order catalogues or periodicals. For example, coated paper, which is coated on both sides and contains wood, meets the toughest requirements regarding the degree of whiteness and the surface and printing quality.

PULP

Pulp, or stock, is the raw material for the production of paper. Stock preparation involves isolating the fibers contained in wood, other woody plants or other fiber resources. Their mechanical, optical and morphological properties are conserved and the lignin, the other main material found in wood, is eliminated.

APPLICATIONS

PULP

To do this, there are two main methods: the mechanical way and the chemical way. There are also other methods which combine the two. Using these methods, paper can be produced from any fibrous plant material rich in cellulose: hemp, bamboo, cotton, linen, raffia, papyrus, reed, wheat straw, rice straw, etc.

The wet machines designed and manufactured by Paperlink produce pulp mats which are then dried, cut and conditioned into bales. These bales are then sold in the market pulp sector.
