Specialty Pulp And Paper Chemicals Market Applications, Dynamics, Overview and Forecast Till 2020

Industry Insights

Specialty pulp and paper chemicals are utilized as raw materials for processing fine quality basket weave, perforated, carbonless, translucent, and no tear polyester paper types. These products consume less water & energy, reduce the product weight and keep the optical and functional properties of the finished product intact. Furthermore, specialty products are incorporated during wastepaper processing thus maintaining the environmental sustainability.

The global market is categorized into four different product segments that include basic, bleaching, process, and functional chemicals. Owing to key attributes such as, flexibility, optimum raw material utilization and better performance under varying operating conditions, these products are used in numerous application industries. Labeling, graphic arts, food, and filtration are the key application sectors that incorporate the use of treated pulp and specialty paper.

Specialty chemicals are specifically utilized in processing of premium quality customized papers and not the normal quality ones that are used in publishing shops and common printing areas. Filtration media and high value product packaging are the major customized end-uses of the product.
