Paper & Board Industry
From brightness to bulk, 20 Microns engineers precision mineral solutions that help paper mills improve quality, control costs and run smoother across paper and board grades.
01
We provide mineral solutions for paper and board production. Our portfolio helps mills manage brightness, opacity, bulk, print quality and process efficiency.
Functional Advantages
Kaolin, calcined kaolin and calcium carbonate improve brightness, opacity, smoothness and print definition.
Purpose-selected fillers replace expensive fibre while maintaining sheet quality, bulk and machine performance.
Talc and bentonite control pitch and stickies while improving retention, drainage and machine runnability.
Paper mills must balance sheet quality with fibre costs and machine performance. Mineral selection helps address brightness, deposits, drainage and retention.
Finished paper can miss premium whiteness and opacity specifications.
High-brightness kaolin, calcined kaolin, calcium carbonate and TiO₂ improve light scattering and sheet appearance.
Virgin fibre and pulp prices place continued pressure on paper and board margins.
Controlled filler grades support economical fibre replacement while protecting bulk, strength and surface quality.
Deposits and filler loss increase downtime, sheet breaks and effluent load.
Talc and bentonite adsorb deposits, improve retention and support faster, cleaner drainage.
