Drainage Aids – Polymer Solutions for Paper Manufacturing

Horizon Chemical supplies drainage aid chemicals for the paper industry to support efficient water removal during the papermaking process. By improving drainage performance at the forming section, these polymer-based solutions help optimise machine operation, enhance production efficiency, and maintain the quality of the finished paper.

Key Benefits of Drainage Aids

• Enhanced Drainage Performance: Accelerate water removal from the fibre suspension to support efficient sheet formation.
• Increased Machine Productivity: Support higher operating speeds when process conditions allow.
• Reduced Energy Consumption: Help lower the energy required for downstream dewatering and drying, depending on operating conditions.
• Improved Sheet Formation: Promote more uniform fibre distribution and consistent paper structure.
• Enhanced Retention: Support the retention of fine particles and fillers within the paper sheet.

Horizon Chemical delivers specialised polymer solutions designed around the operational demands of paper mills, helping manufacturers improve drainage efficiency, optimise machine performance, and achieve consistent paper quality.
