FennoFlot
FennoFlot deinking solutions provide excellent pulp brightness, minimum residual ink values and low speck counts.
Hydrochloric acid
Hydrochloric acid is used for pH adjustment, production of chloride salts, surface treatment of metals and recovery of ion exchangers.
Hydrogen peroxide
Hydrogen peroxide is used in chemical and mechanical pulp bleaching as well as in other chemical industries.
KemAQ
KemAQ is ultra-high purity micronized aqueous slurry of anthraquinone (AQ) used to benefit the digester and recovery operations in a variety of ways.
KemBorino
KemBorino is an alkaline aqueous solution of sodium borohydride that is used to generate sodium dithionite for the bleaching of mechanical pulp.

Sodium bisulfite
In the pulp and paper industry sodium bisulfite is used as a sulfonation agent in CTMP production and in the production of sodium dithionite.
Sodium chlorate for chlorine dioxide
Sodium chlorate is mainly used for the on-site generation of chlorine dioxide, a key bleaching agent for chemical pulping.
Sodium hydroxide
Kemira sodium hydroxide (caustic soda) is used in pulp cooking and it is produced using the environmentally friendly (BAT) membrane technology.
Sulfur dioxide
Sulfur dioxide is used for producing bleaching chemicals like chlorine dioxide and sodium dithionite. It is also used in the pulp bleaching process.
Sulfuric acid
In pulp and paper industry sulfuric acid is used in large volumes for chlorine dioxide generation, tall oil splitting and pH-adjustments.
