GRASPAP

GRASPAP are purely mechanically, but particularly sustainably produced natural fibers that are processed without the use of chemical additives and water. In addition to these ecological and economic aspects, the new fiber is characterized by special properties for paper production:

It serves as a supplementary raw material for pulp or groundwood pulp and has different fiber lengths with individual fines content and different fractionations. GRASPAP is also characterized by the fact that it produces improvedCO2 values of up to 75 %, is suitable for the recycling loop and has no undesirable allergens or dermatological effects. Due to its volume-forming properties, the raw material GRASPAP is ideal as a substitute for wood fiber-based paper in the production of cardboard packaging.
