SHANGHAI - Jan. 23, 2026 - PRLog -- Recently, Golden Paper announced the successful completion and official commissioning of its fluff pulp project. As one of the Golden Paper Company's key strategic initiatives in the pulp and paper-based materials sector, the launch of this project further expands tissue paper material options for absorbent paper products and provides more stable capacity support for downstream niche markets.
Fluff pulp is a functional pulp characterized by high bulk, excellent absorbency, and fast liquid uptake. In the papermaking industry, it is primarily used in tissue and hygiene paper products that require superior absorbency and comfort, such as napkins, facial tissues, and hand towels. In these applications, fluff pulp enhances liquid absorption speed and capacity while maintaining softness, playing a critical role in improving user experience and ensuring consistent product performance.
With rising quality expectations driven by food service, public hygiene, and household consumption scenarios, paper manufacturers are placing increasing emphasis on the stability and consistency of raw material performance. Compared with conventional pulp grades, fluff pulp offers advantages in fiber structure control and absorbent functionality, making it an increasingly important raw material for absorbent and functional paper products, especially for leading China paper manufacturers committed to high-quality production.
According to the company, the newly commissioned project is a chemi-mechanical fluff pulp line with a designed annual capacity of 50,000 metric tons. Golden Paper stated that the project marks a new milestone and that the company will accelerate capacity ramp-up efforts to achieve stable, efficient operation as soon as possible. Meanwhile, Golden Paper will continue to focus on core application areas such as napkins, facial tissues, and hand towels, advancing product development and process optimization to further improve the applicability and overall performance of fluff pulp in real-world papermaking processes.
Industry observers believe that amid steady growth in tissue paper demand and increasing product segmentation, fluff pulp projects with clear application positioning and scalable production capabilities will play an increasingly important role within the papermaking industry value chain. As a high-performance paper material, the addition of new capacity is expected to help alleviate raw material supply pressure for absorbent paper products while offering downstream paper mills greater flexibility in product structure optimization and quality enhancement.
As the 50,000-ton chemi-mechanical fluff pulp capacity is gradually released, Golden Paper's presence in the pulp and tissue raw materials sector will continue to deepen, with project advantages expected to translate into tangible performance improvements across downstream papermaking applications, particularly in enhancing the efficiency and quality of the production of paper.
