Paperboard Maker Boosts Productivity with Buckman's Maximyze Technology
A Northwest paperboard manufacturer has boosted productivity and saved resources using Buckman's Maximyze technology. The company increased machine speed by 20 feet per minute and reduced refining by 40%, leading to significant energy and wood pulp savings.
Maximyze, a proprietary enzyme technology, modifies wood cellulose to enhance paper strength and quality without additional chemicals or energy. The treatment reduced the basis weight of paper by 3 pounds per 1,000 square feet without compromising quality. This not only saves wood fiber but also allows for higher recycled paper content, further benefiting the environment. A single plant using Maximyze can save up to $1 million per year. Buckman estimates that this technology can save the equivalent of 25,000 trees per year for a single machine. Over 50 paper mills in the U.S. and beyond have successfully implemented this innovative solution.
Buckman's Maximyze technology has proven to be a game-changer in the paper industry. By increasing efficiency and reducing waste, it offers a sustainable way forward for paper manufacturers. With over 50 mills already benefiting from this technology, its potential for widespread adoption is clear.
