CLEAN FELT - Archroma

Can we have more recycled pulp and clean felts at the same time?

WHAT WE LOVE:

Being able to use more recycled pulp and less resources
Combining increase productivity and felt longevity

BUT DID YOU KNOW?

Stickies tend to build up faster on the felts when more recycled pulp is used…
… causing marks and punctures in the paper as well as poor drying …
… leading to a stop of production to clean the felts
