Georgia-Pacific Chemicals

GP Chemicals offers a full range of wet and dry strength resins specifically engineered for paper, tissue and toweling, napkins, linerboard, liquid packaging, bag carrierboard and specialty applications.

The Amres® line of permanent wet strength resins features high solids and is designed for cost-effective performance. Some products are specifically formulated to lower absorbable organic halogen (AOX) levels in paper and effluent streams.

Sof-Strength® temporary wet strength resins also feature high solids and are formulated to provide excellent softness and to increase shelf-life.

Ambond® dry strength resins are available in both cationic and anionic versions with multiple charge densities and molecular weights. Ambond carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) is formulated to be used with dry strength resins to increase wet and surface strength of the sheet.

GP Chemicals also markets repulpable wet strength resins designed to increase fiber retention while preserving strength levels prior to repulping. Our repulpable wet strength program gives the customer interested in repulpability and recyclability; control; and flexibility, regardless of furnish or grade structure. This system takes advantage of our patented temporary wet strength technology as well as the shelf stable permanent wet strength resin in the Amres product line.
