Cargill will be present at the June 3 to 5 2014 edition of PulPaper, the international exhibition for the pulp and paper industry, in Helsinki, Finland.
This year, Cargill’s stand (6E27) will highlight how Cargill “helps customers thrive”, or, in other words, grow, prosper and be successful. Thanks to a long-standing relationship with paper makers, built on a deep understanding of their challenges and needs and an expanded portfolio of agricultural origin ingredients, Cargill can help customers develop innovative products, while enhancing speed to market and enabling sustainable growth.
On the stand, visitors will be able to discover cost-effective solutions developed specifically for paper-making, such as a wide range of coating starches, including C*Film®, C*iCoat® and C*iFilm®. Made from renewable resources, these biodegradable, chlorine-free starches allow the cost-efficient replacement of petroleum-based synthetic binders, thus reducing the overall environmental footprint of the finished products.
This year, Cargill will introduce a brand new concept for wet-end applications, which improves paper and board performances: C*iBond®wet-end starch. This patented solution has been designed to match modified potato starch performance while remaining a long-term, cost effective alternative. Obtained from renewable resources which secures durable availability, C*iBond® wet-end starch ensures quality performance over time and plays a key role in the total retention and dewatering. This solution increases paper’s runnability and decreases the risk of paper web breaks that could have occurred in the past with other raw materials. C*iBond® wet-end starch achieves a better or at least similar performance than any other raw materials.
