Applications/Examples of results
Molding Technology and High Functionality of Industrial Molded Fiber Industrial molded fiber is processed through pulping, molding, compression, drying, trimming, and surface treatment into products such as trays, cushioning materials, dividers, end caps, and protective shells. The products are categorized into thin types (less than 1.0mm), standard thickness types (1.0 to 2.5mm), thick types (2.6 to 6.0mm), and heavy-duty types (over 6.0mm), each requiring specific rigidity, shock absorption, and dimensional accuracy based on their applications. While recycled paper fibers are the main raw material, virgin pulp, bagasse, and bamboo fibers are combined for high-strength applications to achieve both strength and moldability.
