Packaging Industry
Starch is a popular base for adhesives, particularly those designed to bond paper in some form to itself or to other materials. Tapioca starch adhesives are highly viscous and smoother working. The glue products are made in a fully automatic plant using in house upgraded technology by simulating process parameters and redesigning the reactor suitably to achieve the desired reaction. Reactor design has been perfected to achieve the process of conversion of starch to dextrin without rupturing the starch molecules. Scaling up has been perfected to maintain consistency by producing in large quantities; we are the first unit in the medium scale organized sector to produce such products in India.
100% Conversion of starch into gel (glue) is important as starch itself is not an adhesive. Partial conversion gives poor penetration and binding; Starch left unconverted also is susceptible to fungal attack and unacceptable as per the standards of the food and pharma industries.
Corroplast - VS

Corrugated boards – in 2 / 3 / 5 ply boards, our starch works well as thin paste with high viscosity giving good penetration, binding power and more output resulting in better board strength.

More Specifications
Amylgum – VS

For High speed Automatic cardboard unit, this High viscosity gum gives uniform feed to the roller provides excellent bursting strength, compressed strength, less in drying time, more output and reduces the break down.

More Specifications
Fixwell (A) – VS

Used in 5 ply binder in the corrugation box manufacturing industries. It’s a cold process to provide quick preparation of gum.

More Specifications
Fixwell (N) – VS

It’s a cold water pasting with no other addition of chemical in it. It has neutral pH to provide no side effects to the board like corrosion to stable pin and no de-lamination.

More Specifications
Fixwell (H) – VS

Used in fine ply binder in the corrugation box to provide low viscosity, high productivity, excellent burst resistance and superior bonding.

Corroplast – VS

Corrugated boards – in 2 / 3 / 5 ply boards, our starch works well as thin paste with high viscosity giving good penetration, binding power and more output resulting in better board strength. Productivity in the paper plant increases due to 1) low steam consumption 2) low power consumption 3) increase in machine speed, lesser consumption of glue and 4) trouble free running with less labor.
Due to quality starch, the entire starch gets gelatinized at low temperature and converts into paste completely. This will not lead to fungal growth between the sheets during transportation. Gives Excellent Bursting Strength and compressed strength.

08. Solubility 30 – 40% 30 – 40%
Advantages :
  • Higher compression strength and Burst factor enabling use of lesser GSM paper or recycled paper.
  • Gives stable viscosity and uniform feeding to the roller.
  • Good water holding capacity.
  • Uniform thickness of glue is maintained throughout the batch time be it any number of hours.
  • Lifting of starch paste by the applicator roll is less due to thin paste.
  • No spillage during increase of roller machine speed.
  • Since the entire starch gets gelatinized at 50˚ C, the Consumption of steam is less and gives quick drying with less time.
  • Due to quality starch, the entire starch gets gelatinized at low temperature and Converts into paste completely. This will not lead to fungal growth between the sheets during transportation.
  • Alternate for synthetic based glue
