Pulp + Paper

Enhancing Strength, Quality, and Efficiency in Paper Production

ITI Technologies has developed a patented aqueous additive chemistry designed to enhance the performance of pulp and paper products throughout the manufacturing process. Built upon ITI’s solubility-enhancing platform, this technology improves critical paper properties while integrating seamlessly into existing production operations.

Paper manufacturers continually seek ways to increase product quality, improve operational efficiency, and reduce material costs. ITI’s chemistry has demonstrated the potential to strengthen fiber interactions, improve sheet formation, brightness and printability while supporting the use of lower-quality fiber sources without compromising performance.

Performance results are based on testing conducted by a independent third-party manufacturer.

Stronger Paper. Smarter Process.

ITI’s additive technology enhances the interaction between fibers during the papermaking process, resulting in stronger, more consistent finished products. By improving fiber bonding, manufacturers achieve enhanced product performance while maintaining existing manufacturing workflows.

The technology also supports increased utilization of recycled or lower-quality fiber sources, helping mills improve sustainability initiatives while controlling raw material costs.

Key Performance Improvements

ITI’s chemistry has demonstrated the potential to improve several critical paper characteristics important to both manufacturers and end users. These enhancements help mills improve efficiency, reduce waste, and deliver higher-quality products across a wide range of paper applications.

Improvements include increased strength properties, enhanced appearance, brightness and improved print performance.
