What Role Does Arrosi Play in the Paper Industry?
The paper industry encompasses a wide ecosystem of manufacturers, converters, and brands that require materials with clearly defined mechanical, functional, and sustainable properties. Within this ecosystem, Arrosi acts as a technical partner for sectors that need specialty papers and high-performance materials.
Our approach combines in-house manufacturing, deep conversion knowledge, and continuous support:
- Guidance in material selection
- Adaptation of reels, formats, and specifications
- Supply stability and FSC® certification
- Joint development with engineering and quality departments
We prioritize catalog solutions that reduce resource consumption, improve efficiency, and maintain technical quality.
Key Materials Arrosi Provides to the Paper Industry
Crepe Paper: Elasticity, Adaptability, and Technical Control
Within the paper industry, crepe paper is one of the most versatile materials for bookbinding, industrial protection, laminates, and technical applications. Its stretchable structure allows it to absorb mechanical stress, adapt to irregular volumes, and maintain excellent absorption capacity.
It is used for:
- Spine reinforcement in industrial bookbinding
- Protection of parts in technical packaging processes
- Interleaving in sectors requiring flexible cushioning
You can explore more in the Arrosi blog article How to Choose the Right Crepe Paper Grammage for Bookbinding.
Tissue Gauze: A Technical Complement for Industrial Processes
Tissue gauze is a technical, plastic-based material that Arrosi supplies as a complementary solution for specific industrial processes—particularly in applications requiring lightness, stability, and structural support, but not paper per se. As such, it is treated differently from our specialty paper products.
In the paper industry, tissue gauze is used as an auxiliary material in specific operations, acting as a separator, protector, or temporary support during key phases of production. It responds to precise technical needs related to handling, process control, or product protection.
Reinforcement Papers: Mechanical Stability for Packaging and Bookbinding
Reinforcement papers play a discreet but essential role in high-demand packaging, books, folders, and structural solutions within the graphic sector. Their function is to ensure consistency and strength, especially when the design or end use demands durability.
Arrosi manufactures this range of materials with a focus on:
- Consistency in grammage and thickness
- Stability under varying humidity conditions
- Compatibility with industrial adhesives, including hot-melt
Paper Rope for Boutique Bag Handles
Paper rope is a reference in the paper industry for the production of boutique bags. Its stability, natural feel, and mechanical behavior make it a sustainable alternative for brands seeking premium design without compromising strength.
Arrosi offers ropes with regular braiding, controlled fibers, and FSC® certification, helping to improve the performance of automatic bag lines and enhance brand image.
Technical Requirements Driving Today’s Paper Industry
1. Sustainable and Traceable Materials
The transition toward sustainable manufacturing models requires certified materials, optimized processes, and a clear focus on reducing environmental impact. FSC® certification, present in Arrosi products, is already a key standard.
2. Adaptability to Conversion Processes
Converters need papers that perform consistently in:
- Rewinding and unwinding tension
- Paper with polyethylene applications for barrier use
- Laminates such as bitumen paper, greaseproof paper, or waxed paper used in specific industrial sectors
- Textured surfaces like embossed paper to enhance grip and functionality
3. Compatibility with Adhesives and Treatments
Whether for packaging or bookbinding, compatibility with adhesives is critical. Using hot-melt or cold glue papers requires thermal stability, resistance, and surface regularity.
How Does Arrosi Support Each Project in the Paper Industry?
Technical Advice from the Start
Each project begins with a needs analysis: grammage, elasticity, reinforcement properties, machine performance, and end-use conditions. Our team identifies the appropriate material—be it crepe paper, tissue gauze, reinforcement papers, or paper rope—and proposes tailored configurations.
Custom Conversion and Adaptation
Conversion is key. We adapt:
- Custom reels for automatic equipment
- Special formats for specific production lines
- Dimensions and tolerances according to client standards
The paper industry requires precision in every detail, and proper conversion ensures efficiency, waste reduction, and repeatability.
Experience Across Diverse Industrial Sectors
We serve areas such as:
- Industrial bookbinding
- Food and non-food packaging
- Graphic arts
- Components for technical products
Each sector presents unique requirements, and our experience allows us to anticipate behaviors and propose stable solutions.
Real-World Use Cases: How We Solve Challenges in the Paper Industry
Spine Reinforcement in Editorial Bookbinding
A publisher needed to improve spine resistance for long runs. After analysis, we selected crepe paper with controlled elasticity, combined with reinforcement papers—resulting in fewer breaks and a more stable process.
Improved Performance of Boutique Bags
A manufacturer was looking for a lightweight yet strong rope that preserved a premium aesthetic. Arrosi’s paper corde provided the perfect balance between strength and design.
