Toilet Paper Production

The first step in the process of making soft tissue paper is creating paper pulp, which can be generated from Recycled Materials or new ones. Once the fibers are mixed with the wood pulp, they are bleached and then washed. The fiber is then placed in a mixing tank where the Manufacturers adds any Components that may be needed, such as dye. Tissue paper used for household purposes is normally dyed white, while decorative paper can be mixed with an assortment of dye colors.

Once the pulp is ready, it is pressed through two pressure rolls so that a majority of the moisture is squeezed out. Sometimes the pulp might be pressed only between two rolls for thicker paper, and other times it may undergo the pressure of multiple rolls for thinner paper. This leaves the pulp in a manageable consistency for the next step, which will completely dry it out and scrape it down to a thin sheet.

The pulp is processed with a Yankee dryer, a drying Cylinder heated by steam. This dryer puts the pulp through a process called creping; hence the term "crepe paper." The hood above the roller dries the pulp with a forceful heat as the roller turns and a fine blade scrapes the tissue down to the soft, desired thickness. The tissue does not get completely scraped away, because the roller is first sprayed with adhesives.

The long length of paper is reeled and cut with a machine, such as the Advantage Soft Reel, into appropriate lengths and sections after it is dried and thinned. Throughout the process of making soft tissue paper, there are times when the fibers are exposed to extreme heat. To keep the fibers from igniting, technology such as Met so's Advantage Wet Dust is used to keep eliminate air born dust from the area and keep the tissue machines clean.

The toilet roll production plant is a stationary one to be sourced locally. The plant is made up of the core cutting machine, core gluing machine, jumbo reel winding machine and band saw cutting machine.
