The role our kaolin plays in your paper formulation
Brightness & Opacity
High refractive index and platelet structure boost sheet brightness and opacity.
Printability & Ink Receptivity
Controlled particle size distribution supports crisp, uniform ink lay-down.
Rheology & Runnability
Optimised viscosity behaviour for smooth coating slip application at machine speed.
Low-Impurity Consistency
Batch-to-batch uniformity verified in our in-house QC lab.
