Lower starch loading
Start at 25% reduction planning and explore targets up to 35%, validated against mill quality requirements.
Model your scenarioProduction benefits
Better use of materials.
Better-informed decisions.
Judge the chemical change by both material economics and the required production outcome.
Paper & board
Value beyond
the starch quantity.
Strength & sheet integrity
Check that the reduced-starch recipe meets the agreed strength, durability and acceptance criteria.
Explore paper enzymeBonding & taping
Compare bonding, tape-sticking and finished-product handling against the existing recipe.
Discuss a trialTransparent material cost
Include the full enzyme cost, material rates and any additional process costs.
Understand savingsTextile warp sizing
Protection through
the weaving process.
Protective yarn film
Evaluate film formation with the PVA grade and application suited to the yarn.
Explore PVAAbrasion resistance
Compare protection under the actual loom conditions.
Compare sizingFiber binding
Record shedding, yarn handling and fabric acceptance during the trial.
Use a trial recordComplete process value
Account for sizing, weaving, desizing and finishing costs per acceptable unit.
Ask about PVACapture additional value
Measure the benefits.
Keep the basis clear.
Starch handling, inventory, rejects, machine stops and energy use can affect production value. Include additional savings after your mill has recorded them.
Track what changes
- Starch bag movements and inventory
- Rejects and cost per acceptable tonne
- Machine stops and recipe consistency
- Energy, water, labor and finishing costs
- Strength, yarn protection and output quality
The calculator includes starch, enzyme and the additional process cost you enter. It does not assume unmeasured energy, water or yield gains.
