From food & beverage filtration via banknotes to laminate base papers – numerous speciality paper products require a high wet strength – our Giluton^® wet strength agent portfolio for wet and dry strength improvement offer a maximum strength enhancement in compliance with the regulatory framework conditions. In addition, they provide a number of proven benefits to paper such as increased machine speed or a higher utilization of low-cost fibre.

The controlled absorbance of liquid (water, ink etc.) into the paper fibre web by applying a sizing agent has a key role in paper making processes. Kurita has a leading position in supplying and applying state of art surface sizing agents in the paper industry. Classical and non-woven wallpapers require high dimensional stability and a controlled adhesive uptake – Perglutin^® surface sizing agent provides both of these while supporting the paper strength properties. Additionally, thanks to Perglutin^®, the downtime of the paper machine is decreased and the loss of raw materials due to cleaning is reduced.
