Reducing the costs of raw material will look good on your profit-and-loss-account, but may have undesired consequences for paper quality and strength. With our Paper Performance Approach you can achieve both: reduce costs and improve paper properties. For this purpose Avebe developed several specialty starches, one of them is AMYLOFAX®.
Potato starch has the highest molecular weight compared to other native starches. A higher molecular weight corresponds with a higher binding power. AMYLOFAX® a pure potato starch derivative, is the natural choice for wet-end applications. AMYLOFAX® comes within very narrow specifications and has the absolute minimum in variation in cationicity, guaranteeing outstanding runnability. No product available is cleaner than AMYLOFAX®.
AMYLOFAX® will not only bring you maximum runnability but also:
AMYLOFAX® products are industrial starch modified products, obtained from non-GMO food-grade potato starch. They comply with all the applicable legislation for food contact paper and board. AMYLOFAX® is allowed to be used in direct food contact. FDA: AMYLOFAX® meets the requirements for Food starch modification, implying that it also meets the requirements for paper and paperboard in direct food contact. BfR: AMYLOFAX® meets the requirements described in Empfehlung XXXVI and Empfehlung XXXVI-2 (baking paper).
