Sicem Saga Spa

Chemimechanical paste for Coated cardboard

For coated cardboard where stiffness, compressibility and excellent printability are categorical imperatives, Sicem Saga has developed some types of TCF chemimechanical pastes for interiors and covers, which allow to produce the best products with considerable savings in the use of raw materials. .

The use of disc refiners ensures bulkiness for the interiors while the patented type of impregnation confers rigidity.

In the cover CMPs, Sicem Saga has exploited the technology, proven for some time in coated papers, where a very low chipping and high opacity guarantee excellent candling with high yield in the coating machine without lines or clouds.

It is now proven that the use of CMP Sicem Saga on the cover (even up to 30%) allows to minimize or exclude the use of expensive and poorly opaque semi-chemical or cellulose pulps with short fibers.

The poplar fiber also gives a decidedly higher degree of smoothness, much appreciated in high coverage prints.
