Valmet has introduced Warm-up Next, an innovative solution for tissue converting that enhances quality, efficiency, and sustainability. This advanced embossing system offers significant benefits, including up to a 50% increase in product bulk, improved softness, reduced paper consumption, energy savings of up to 60%, and enhanced operational safety—all without the use of water.
Warm-up Next marks a further advancement over the previous Warm-up Contactless system by introducing pre-embossing functionalities. These broaden the configuration possibilities for a wide range of products, from hygiene items to kitchen towels. Manufacturers can now achieve high performance while maintaining a competitive edge in an increasingly demanding market.
This solution enables customized configurations for any finished product format, optimizing paper usage and improving overall production efficiency. Additionally, Warm-up Next completely eliminates the need for wetting and drying the paper during production, thereby reducing energy consumption and simplifying the process.
The implementation of Warm-up Next does not add complexity to the existing production line: installing the pre-embossing station requires no changes to the plant layout, nor additional skills for operators or maintenance teams, making system integration quick and hassle-free.
