Our Journey

Process Applications, Ltd. is a specialty chemical manufacturer dedicated exclusively to the tissue industry since 1982. With decades of focused experience in paper making, chemical design and formulation, specialized manufacturing… we take your papermaking goals, analyze your manufacturing equipment, and design a program specifically to meet your objectives. Whether we use an “off the shelf” chemistry or design a product specifically suited to your needs; we will partner with your team to improve machine performance, product quality, machine protection and operation efficiency through innovative ideas and chemistry.

We began with conventional tissue machines, but we have been at the forefront of new technologies, such as the hybrid processes. This began with the e-Tad technology, but has evolved into an offering of many “hybrid processes” such as NTT, Atmos and QRT. We work with them all and our Yankee chemistry works with more NTT Textured Paper than anyone else in the industry. Of course, DCT and TAD are still the most common formats of tissue and towel manufacturing and we work with all variants. Whether DCT’s with twin press, Single Suction Press, Shoe Press, Visconip with Redry… we work with them all and provide chemical solutions for every single one. We also have tremendous experience in Cast Iron, Rolled Steel and Metallized surfaces and what chemistries provide the best performance and surface preservation. TAD varies so much in process and dryness – but we work with TAD since 1991 through more modern developments.

At PAL, our singular focus on tissue allows us to deliver reliable, high performance chemistry to enhance your production for better output, efficiency, quality and flexibility – every day.
