Hydro Paper: Innovation and Sustainability for High-Performance Gypsum Boards
In the construction sector, demands for quality, sustainability, and efficiency set the standard. At Alier, with nearly two centuries of experience in recycled paper manufacturing, we understand these demands and turn them into opportunities for innovation. One of our new specialty products is Hydro Paper, a hydrophobic coating for gypsum boards that revolutionizes performance and sustainability.
What is Hydro Paper?
Hydro Paper is a coating for gypsum boards with a hydrophobic treatment that ensures superior performance even in the most demanding applications. Specifically designed to meet H1 standards, this product not only protects the boards from moisture but also significantly improves their recyclability and manufacturing process. Its main features include:
- Hydrophobic surface that protects against moisture, increasing the durability of gypsum boards in adverse environments.
- Reduction of siloxanes and waxes in the core, enabling more efficient gypsum recycling.
- Acceleration of curing time, optimizing warehouse logistics and improving operational efficiency.
- Water absorption
