The depletion of fossil fuels and varying prices of petroleum products are paving the way for the development of products from biomass sources in numerous industries.
The remarkable commercial success of the STABILYS® range of natural polymers, which can replace latex in paper coating formulas, is an excellent illustration of this.
In recent years, intensive technical cooperation between our teams and those of our clients has enabled us to set a joint agenda for reaching the ultimate goal of totally replacing binders derived from petrochemicals in the coating of paper.
It is in this context that we have been able to develop and market two new products in the STABILYS®EVO range, which position us in the growing markets of special paper and coated cardboard.
