Reductions in cost in packaging papers manufacture through optimized use of wires and felts

A discussion covers trends in the manufacture and sales of testliner and corrugated paper. The demand for micro-fluted paper steadily increases such as that for 75 g/sq m paper. Query whether through the influence of the Internet mail order business the development of light corrugated paper will lead to 65 g/sq m micro-fluted paper. A problem is that the ash content of scrap paper increases from the traditional 10% to 15-17%. Energy costs, a factor in paper manufacture, constantly increase. The question is how to reduce all these costs. In this regard, the topics focus on the optimized use of wires and felts.
