Specificities of this Paper
Hygiene and tissue papers are special because they require different drying methods compared to other papers, utilizing a yankee. To optimize production, the chemicals must be adapted to work effectively with the yankee. Creping the sheet enhances the softness and bulk of the paper, while coating ensures smooth operation, protection, and efficiency of the yankee cylinder. Together, these processes improve the overall quality, performance, and strength of the tissue papers.
