Services for paper and packaging

Application know-how is one of our core competencies. We consider technical service as an integral part of our portfolio, and our paper and chemical engineers are available for on-site assistance.

Our formulations are especially designed for paper machine application. Fungicide and biocide formulations are applied on paper machines (e.g. size-press), printing presses or laminators. Our fungicides are fixed to the paper surface by adding them to a binder such as PVOH, starch, water – based varnish, latex, CMC or others.

We provide quantitative and qualitative laboratory services, including 

• Identification of main fungi present on paper or board
  - by microscopic analysis
  - by biomolecular analysis

• Efficiency check of fungicide treatment according to:
  - International norms (Tappi 487-pm99, AFNOR NF 41-517, ASTM G 21, ..)
  - Customized methods according to application and environment

• Analytical quantification of fungicides in the paper or board
