Paper & Cardboard

Reinventing the industry

Paper and cardboard are essential materials in our daily lives and have become fundamental pillars in numerous industries. Paper, derived from wood pulp and other plant materials, is a versatile and malleable resource that remains prevailing in our digital age. Cardboard, composed of multiple layers of paper overlapped and adhered together, exhibits greater density, rigidity, and durability compared to paper. Both materials are crucial for the manufacture, packaging, and distribution of products.

Carbon nanofibers for a stronger material

The incorporation of our carbon nanofibers into the paper and cardboard matrix has improved their mechanical properties. Thanks to the high strength and stiffness of the carbon nanofibers developed at Nanomate, we were able to strengthen the structure of these materials, improving their stiffness, the ability to maintain their shape and their resistance to deformation under load. In addition, the integration of nanomaterials reduces raw material consumption and enhances the intrinsic properties of the starting matrix, even providing it with other characteristics, such as improved adhesion.
