Modified southern pine fibers that resist compression, even when wet.
The process twists and curls standard fibers, then locks the coiled configurations in place. Helix® Fibers can add value to various end use applications:
Absorbent Hygiene Products
Helix® creates performance advantages with excellent fluid management due to fast liquid acquisition and the ability to wick against gravity.
Specialty Paper & Packaging Board
Both wet and dry, Helix® is an excellent bulking agent producing webs with high permeability and resistance to compression. Added to a paper or board, Helix® is a tool to achieve the desired balance of basis weight, caliper, performance and cost.
