| Advantages of Specialty Pulp | Basic Grades of Pulp | Pulp Applications |
Naturally, we have several standard grades of pulp that we produce
regularly. These are ideal for many papers being produced. Of course, even
among our standard grades of pulp, there are many variances that we can
provide for our customers to give them the exact result they want.

Standard Grades
Grade 500
This product is run only once a month. 500 is extremely bright 94+ GE
Grade 875
This grade is non-fluorescent, has a brightness of 88 (GE), and will
require more work in the beater (to reconstitute the pulp) than the 890
grade.
Grade 890
This is a bleached white product, with a brightness of 88+ (GE). It is
very strong and clean. It has been refined more than our grade 875, and
therefore requires less work in the beater to prepare.
Grade 920 – Denim
This product is not bleached, and is very dark, almost black. This product
is run only once a month. Because of the very specialized nature of this
product, we have a 2 truckload minimum (can be split between customers).
Grade 950 – Denim
This grade is a non-fluorescent, bleached product, with a brightness in
the 80-82 range (GE). Occasionally, this pulp will have a slight blue tint
to it.
Specialty Pulps
Other specialty or custom designed pulps can be created as needed. These
are composed of natural fibers that offer texture or decorative effects,
including cotton, industrial hemp (manila), abaca, jute, tobacco stalks,
hay, straw, and other kinds of fibers.
When paper companies want to create a special paper, we encourage them to
call us and specify the content, or perhaps the effect they want to
create. We will make suggestions, and often run experimental mixtures for
them.
Converting
We also have customers who purchase the raw materials themselves, then ask
us to pulp it for them. We’re more than happy to provide this service
whenever needed.
Pulp Blends
Sometimes a customer wants a blend of wood and fiber pulp. In some cases,
the customer will mix the final blend themselves. In other cases, they may
send us their wood pulp, and have us blend it for them with our cotton or
other stock. We then dry and bale the resulting pulp mixture, ready to
ship.
