We pay and get a receipt, eat hamburgers and bake cookies on baking paper. They are in our lives but seldom we stop to think about how special those papers and boards are. Every specialty paper and board grade has its own niche market and its own needs for the production process.
High-quality specialty papers with special process knowhow
High quality of the end product is vital, and the quality targets must be met constantly without deviations. The critical quality targets can be reached by building a reliable production line that relies on strong process understanding.
