Higher Carbonate levels in your uncoated
wood-free grades can deliver some amazing results:
- Several mills have increased ash by up to 2% without losing sheet
strength by blending starch and GCC 50/50 on the metered size press.
- Mills have also reduced fiber consumption by 2% by blending
GCC with PCC in the wet-end, saving $300-$350 per ton of furnish.
With the right partner, anything is possible.
