Coating Starches
For coated paper and board manufacturers, the appearance and strength of the finished product are key elements.
Coating color mixes consist of three basic components: pigments, binders and water. The most common natural binder is starch. Starch is an excellent binder and a natural, reliable and cost-effective latex-replacement choice.
Technological advances (including bigger and faster coating machines) require new, more cost-effective and greener coating polymers. Cargill’s bio-polymer range of coating starches allows paper & board manufacturers to choose from a wide array of tailor-made modified starches for specific solids/viscosity levels, water retention ability and paper quality.
