Outstanding results on finished products with Valmet Warm-up Next process

Warm-up unlocks new configuration possibilities for both hygienic and kitchen towel products, enabling manufacturers to achieve outstanding performance and maintain a competitive edge in an increasingly demanding market.

Warm-up Next Process enhances hot embossing

The Warm-up Next Process expands  benefits of Warm-up Contactless  by introducing pre-embossing capabilities for outstanding results on finished products, offering endless possibilities for product configuration, both for hygienic and kitchen towels products, with pre-embossing micro, as an example.

The Warm-up Next process seamlessly integrates a single or double rubber-to-steel pre-embossing station into existing embossing units, without significant layout changes to tissue converting production lines in the case of a single rubber-to-steel pre-embossing station.

Warm-up Next process provides exceptional flexibility in hot pre-embossing management.

Tissue manufacturers can now easily achieve all possible finished product configurations for any tissue product format while maintaining top standards in tissue characteristics, quality, and performance. This means increasing product caliper by up to 50% or using less paper while improving overall process efficiency.

Hot embossing without using a drop of water

The Warm-up Next process eliminates the need for a water source, removing the tissue wetting and drying steps during production. This proves that outstanding embossing results can be achieved without using a single drop of water, with no compromise to the end-product quality. With the Warm-up Next Process, Valmet embossing systems can even operate in the desert!

Seamless integration without complexity

Additionally, this process ensures that the complexity of the production line remains unchanged. The installation of Pre-embossing station does not alter machine functionality, requires no modifications to existing assets, introduces no additional complexity for operators, and does not demand new maintenance skills.  

Quality you can feel, benefits you can count on

For manufacturers looking to stay competitive in challenging markets, Warm-up Next Process is a dynamic solution. It’s not just an upgrade to existing systems; it maximizes finished product quality by increasing caliper by up to 50% while using less paper, all while maintaining softness, absorbency, and tensile strength. We conducted extensive testing using our pilot line Constellation S6 under real production speed conditions.

Hot embossing takes a step forward with Warm-up Next process

Valmet’s Warm-up Next process is making the impossible possible in tissue embossing. With its innovative features, impactful operational benefits, and unparalleled Valmet innovation and support, it offers tissue manufacturers a pathway to enhanced production capabilities and competitive advantage. Say goodbye to limitations and hello to a leaner, more sustainable, and efficient production line with a wide range of viable products.
