Sustainable solution for paper and pulp industry

In 2016, Brenntag added two innovative rheology modifiers to its range of products for the paper and pulp industry: Both products are used as additives primarily in the production of corrugated cardboard, where they influence the flow properties. In contrast to conventional boron-containing substances, one product is free from carcinogenic, mutagenic and reprotoxic components (CMR-free). The second product still contains Borax but in a liquid form which makes handling and usage safer and more sustainable. Brenntag has acquired the licences for both of the patented products and the exclusive rights for blending, selling and distributing them globally (with the exception of North America and Mexico).
