FiberLean™MFC is an innovative composite of Micro-Fibrillated Cellulose (MFC) and mineral. Application of FiberLean™MFC typically allows replacing 10-15% fiber. Paper makers who use FiberLean™MFC reduce their raw material costs, improve productivity and have a unique opportunity to innovate and develop new differentiated products. IMERYS has established full scale commercial supply of MFC and is further expanding its global commercial reach.
The increased hydrogen bonding improves the initial wet strength of the web. No new additives or process chemicals are involved. The increased use of mineral gives better base paper opacity, bright-ness and improves the paper machine’s drying performance.
Paper porosity is significantly improved, leading to better coat-ing hold and less coating water penetrating the base paper. The use of FiberLean MFC improves
coating performance across a wide range of applications and reduces the need for binders and expensive additives.
Paper containing FiberLean main-tains bulk and stiffness, despite the higher density of MFC and higher filler-to-fiber ratio. This is achieved as the paper is smoother and has up to 30% better bond strength. Paper with improved smoothness can be calendared at lower pressure and/or in fewer
nips. Coated papers can further re-duce calendering due to improved hold-out and gloss. The increase in bond strength means changes in refining or use of bulkier pulps such as CTMP is possible. Finally in Uncoated Wood-free paper, the Scalenohedral PCC allows for fur-ther filler increase without sacrific-ing bulk or stiffness.
Give natural strength to your paper
FiberLean™MFC replaces 10-15% of the fiber in the base paper. The MFC contained in the composite has a large surface area, thus allowing the formation of more hydrogen bonds within the web, giving natural strength to the paper.

A wide range of pulp species can be fed into the process and no pretreatment is required. This in turn allows the use of robust and reliable industrial equipment suitable for in-mill installation. IMERYS FiberLean™MFC plants are available in different capaci-ties ranging from one thousand to over ten thousand tons of MFC per year. The capacity and flexibility of the plants now makes the use of MFC in full scale papermaking a reality.
A robust, reliable and scalable process tailored to meet your needs
The MFC is made through an IMERYS proprietary process. The mineral, which is typically kaolin or calcium carbonate, plays an essential role in the transfer of mechanical energy, transforming regular pulp into MFC.
