The Process of Making Those Gorgeous Printed Tissue Papers (Continued)

Let’s recap what we have done so far, so that we can start the next step in a more understanding way. In the very first step, we have created the paper pulp which is used to make those amazing printed tissue paper.  As I said earlier the pulp can be created with the help of recycled material as well as wood fiber. Then once the pulp is created it is poured on a porous belt which will suck the water out of it and will dry the paper. The next thing which we need to do is as follows.

Step III

Then the same paper which is stuck to the belts is peeled from it and transferred to a massive roller which is generally called as Yankee, it is a heated roller. Due to this high temperature on the roller, the chunk of fabric dries almost immediately. Then the similar dried paper is transferred to the core where it is converted into the jumbo rolls. To get a thicker or thinner tissue one can always adjust the draw speed of jumbo rolls.

All these three steps make general tissue papers now you have to decide the purpose of tissue to go further. For example, if you wish to have a printed tissue paper towel. Then the above procedure stays same only you need to add conditioners at the time when the paper is wet to give an extra strength as these tissue papers are thicker and heavier in nature. Paper towels come in numerous varieties based on the number of plies (layers) they have. All these plies are embossed together in a synchronized pattern which gives a designer look and makes it soft as well as strengthen it.

Similarly, if you want to make the toilet rolls then the same jumbo roll which was created in step three is sent for getting embossed and few other steps to make the soft and nice toilet rolls you use in your washrooms.
